	Pennant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A broad pennant in the Royal Navy is a swallow-tailed tapering flag flown from the masthead of a ship to indicate the presence of a commodore.
		Unlike the triangular pennant, most national and departmental flags are rectangular; the national flag of Nepal and the state flag of Ohio in the U.S. are the only notable modern flags to be a variation of the standard pennant.
		In baseball, the "pennant race" is the last few weeks of the regular season (often expressed specifically as the month of September), when lower-ranked teams are steadily eliminated from contention, leaving the three divisional champions and one wild card team from each league at the beginning of the playoffs.

		The medieval church at Pennant Melangell, towards the head of the valley, is first recorded in the mid thirteenth century but is possibly on a Christian site established by about the 8th century on the basis of the legendary associations with Melangell.
		The church had become an important centre for pilgrims visiting the shrine of Melangell from the 12th century, until the suppression of the cult at the time of the Reformation, in the mid 16th century.
