Donlin's Home Run Delivers Giants Victory Over Brooklyn
Mike Donlin blasted a ninth inning homer to lift the New York Giants to a 3 2 win over Brooklyn at the Polo Grounds. The crowd of about 25,000 roared as Donlin drove in two runs, Merkle had earlier doubled, and Tenney scored on a close play. The opener drew record attendance and had Giants leading early before Brooklyn tied, then Donlin's slam sealed the upset. Brooklyn's pitching struggled as Mathewson dominated with strong defense and a windy day favored offense briefed by a festive mood. The victory kickstarted the season amid warm sun and packed grandstands, with fans flooding the field after the final out.
