History: The 1954 New York Giants finished the season with a record of 97-57 in winning the National League pennant with Manager Leo 'The Lip" Durocher at the helm. Future Hall of Famer Willie Mays won the NL MVP belting 41 dingers and batting .341. The Giants would go on to sweep the World Series over the Cleveland Indians. Willie Mays made the 8th inning over-the-shoulder catch to rob Vic Wertz of giving the Indians a lead in Game 1.
