概要
"The Giants win the pennant!" is the most famous call in sports history. For 50 years, the 1951 National League pennant race was celebrated as the ultimate miracle—a 13.5-game comeback that shouldn't have been possible.
But it wasn't just a miracle. It may have been a heist.
In this episode, we break down the elaborate, high-tech cheating scheme the New York Giants ran out of the center-field clubhouse at the Polo Grounds.
We’re talking telescopes, hidden wires, and a buzzer system installed by an electrician who—in a cruel twist of irony—was a die-hard Brooklyn Dodgers fan.
We dive into:
The Scheme: How the "Polo Grounds Plot" actually worked.
The Stats: Did the buzzer actually help them hit? (The answer will surprise you).
The Confessions: Why the players weren't sorry, but proud of their "treachery."
Was Bobby Thomson’s "Shot Heard 'Round the World" tainted? Let’s dig into the details.
