Saying Good-bye to the Polo Grounds
This ball is from the last game played by the New York
Giants, which was also the last game played at the Polo
Grounds on September 29, 1957. One of the great franchises
in baseball history, the Giants played in New York from
the early 1880s until they moved to San Francisco in
1958.
This copy of the NY Daily News contains an article
that discusses the many ex-Giants who were invited to
attend the last game at the field.
