	The Giants and the Color Barrier
		Giants players Fletcher and Snodgrass (who would earn infamy later in the year) protested to the umpire, feeling that if the Smart Sets were able to bat against a pitcher with a clean ball, the Giants should have the same right.
		The influence of the New York Giants on baseball can be seen by the fact that many teams in the Negro Leagues were labeled as "Giants." The list includes: the Bacharach Giants, Chicago American Giants, Cuban X-Giants, Lincoln Giants, Philadelphia Giants, St. Louis Giants, Nashville Elite Giants and the Brooklyn Royal Giants.
		In any case, the natural team for the New York Giants to face was the Lincolns, and at the time the Lincoln Giants had Smoky Joe Williams, perhaps the greatest pitcher ever to take the mound.
