The page from the 1949 Sporting News Baseball Ball Guide features a photograph of the 1948 New York Giants team. The team is depicted in three rows, with players and coaches distinctly identified. In the front row sit Frey, Gordon, Lockman, Kennedy, Gowdy (coach), along with Manager Durocher, Coach Kress, Trinkle, and Marshall. The middle row comprises McCarthy, Konikowski, Thomson, Rigney, Hansen, Lohrke, Mueller, Hartung, and Coach Jackson, with Jones also included. The back row captures Poat, Kerr, Mize, Layton, Jansen, Koslo, Livingston, Westrum, and Cooper. The New York Giants were a formidable team during this era, competing in the National League. Managed by Leo Durocher, they played their home games at the iconic Polo Grounds in Upper Manhattan.
