1901 Playoffs





Giants finally win one.
New York Wins World Series Crown
Tuesday, October 15th, 1901
"It was two outs in the last inning of the 1901 World Series and my heart is pounding. When the last out was made, a grand feeling came over me. We were the champs for today and forever. We were the champions." That is how the New York manager described his feelings to reporters after the game. "This is the goal. This is the pinnacle of success. This is why we play the game."

The New York Giants won their 1st league championship with a 10-4 win over the Philadelphia Athletics. During the season the new champs compiled a 89-51 record in the National League and finished in first place in the standings. They triumphed over the Athletics 4-2 in games.
