Hot Seller > New York Giants 1940 Home Shirt - Player #4

Mitchell & Ness In 1920, the Cleveland Indians suffered tragedy as their shortstop was killed by a ball that fractured his skull. The Indians went on to win the World Series, paying tribute to their fallen teammate by wearing a black armband. In response to the threat of severe injury, Spalding issued a batting helmet with ear flaps for the 1940 season. Although many of the players did not favor the use of the helmet, it was issued in accordance to the rise of the hit batter. The New York Giants were led by their odd-swinging outfielder who hit 19 of his career 511 homeruns during the 1940 season. The Reds went on to capture the National League Pennant and won their first World Series since the scandalous 1919 series.
