Give the Giants a decent starting pitcher, and suddenly they look like a first-division team. New York dominated as Bob Romby held the Phillies to just 5 hits.
In 1949, Bob Romby’s Baltimore Elite Giants took up residence in the NAL – the NNL having folded. What team did they defeat in the playoffs for the league championship that year?

#1947LEAGUE PREVIEW: PHI @ NYG
Giants (Joe Black 10-6, 3.04) aim for 2 in a row at home over the Phillies (Dutch Leonard 10-6, 3.82).
You’ve heard of “Spahn and Sain and pray for rain”?
For NYG, it’s more like “Black and Romby and Bring on the zombies.”
