World Series stirs memories of old Brooklyn for Long Island Dodgers fans
The Giants, who followed the Dodgers west in 1957, moving to San Francisco, first owned the town, winning the World Series in 1905 and beating the Yankees for titles in 1921 and 1922. Then it was the Yankees, who’d moved from Baltimore in 1903, who became baseball royalty led by Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig and a lineup once known as "Murderer’s Row."
