Baltimore was awarded the Pennant, as they reportedly won both halves of the season. Due to the Great Depression, the ANL, like all negro leagues at the time, was unable to continue.

American Negro League (ANL)
1929 ANL Season Overview
Recap
The ANL operated a split season: first half and second-half schedules with a planned playoff for a pennant in a post-season series between the two winners. The Baltimore Black Sox, led by player-manager Dick Lundy and Hall of Fame first baseman Jud Wilson, won both halves and they were awarded the pennant without a playoff.
