Giants Hope to Crown Weintraub as Jewish Diamond Star
In New York baseball lore, Phil Weintraub emerges as a potential Jewish diamond star for the Giants. He starred for Nashville in the Southern Association, hitting near .490 and leading in hits runs and RBIs, after a long minor league career across Chicago, Indianapolis, Jersey City, and more. If he proves his fielding and sticks in the majors, he could lift the Giants toward a pennant, while Yankees pursue their own Jewish-heritage links and replacements for Babe Ruth.
