1941 New York Giants (MLB) season
The 1941 New York Giants season was the franchise's 59th season in Major League Baseball. The Giants finished in third place in the National League with a record of 84-70, 16 games behind the Brooklyn Dodgers. Mel Ott continued as the team's manager.
Key players for the Giants included Ott, who hit 27 home runs and batted .285. Other notable offensive contributors were Frank Demaree, Johnny Mize, and Babe Young. The pitching staff was led by Carl Hubbell, although his effectiveness was waning due to age and arm troubles. Other pitchers contributing significantly were Harry Gumbert and Ken Trinkle.
The season was characterized by consistent, if not dominant, play. While the Giants were a competitive team, they were unable to seriously challenge the Dodgers, who enjoyed a stellar season en route to winning the National League pennant. There were no major controversies or significant personnel changes that substantially impacted the team's performance. The season saw typical attendance for the era, though overshadowed by the national preoccupation with events leading up to World War II.
