In their final season, the Giants were averaging only 1,200 fans per game. Not exactly an incentive to revamp the Polo Grounds. Like Ebbets Field in Brooklyn, the neighborhoods around both ballparks were in decline, which not only discouraged local fans, but also those who lived outside the area. given the decline in fan base and the area around the Polo Grounds, O'Malley found a more-than willing travel partner for the one-way trip to California! |
