Northey's blow came in the third inning with the bases full following a rhubarb by the Phils. ... The argument came in the third when [Enos] Slaughter was batting with the count three and two. On the next pitch Umpire George Barr's right hand went into the air. The Phils thought it was a strikeout and on Andy Seminick's fast throw Marty Marion was caught in a rundown off second and tagged out. But Barr said it was a fourth ball, which nullified the play at second and filled the bases. Manager Eddie Sawyer and Russ Meyer were ordered out of the game for their part in the argument that followed. A few minutes later Barr went over to the Phils' dugout and put Cy Perkins off the field. || Red Munger (15–6) || Robin Roberts (15–14) || Gerry Staley (5) || 24,319 || 76–68 |- style="background:#bfb" | 145 || September 19 || @ Cardinals || 4–3 || Jocko Thompson (1–2) || Howie Pollet (19–9) || None || 16,874 || 77–68 |- style="background:#fbb" | 146 || September 20 || @ Cardinals || 5–7 || Fred Martin (6–0) || Ken Heintzelman (17–9) || Gerry Staley (6) || 9,642 || 77–69 |- style="background:#bfb" | 147 || September 21 (1) || @ Cubs || 3–1 || Russ Meyer (15–8) || Warren Hacker (5–8) || None || see 2nd game || 78–69 |- style="background:#fbb" | 148 || September 21 (2) || @ Cubs || 6–9 || Monk Dubiel (6–9) || Robin Roberts (15–15) || None || 5,572 || 78–70 |- style="background:#fbb" | 149 || September 22 || @ Cubs || 2–3 || Dewey Adkins (2–4) || Hank Borowy (12–12) || None || 1,813 || 78–71 |- style="background:#fbb" | 150 || September 24 || @ Dodgers || 1–8 || Don Newcombe (16–8) || Jocko Thompson (1–3) || None || 34,083 || 78–72 |- style="background:#bfb" | 151 || September 25 || @ Dodgers || 5–3 || Russ Meyer (16–8) || Jack Banta (9–6) || None || 33,452 || 79–72 |- style="background:#bfb" | 152 || September 28 || Giants || 2–0 || Russ Meyer (17–8) || Sheldon Jones (15–12) || None || 1,996 || 80–72 |- y background:#b71234; color:white; border:1px #99f solid; October (1–1) # Date Opponent Score Win Loss Save Attendance Record |- style="background:#bfb" | 153 || October 1 || Dodgers || 6–4 || Jim Konstanty (9–5) || Preacher Roe (15–6) || None || 29,165 || 81–72 |- style="background:#fbb" | 154 || October 2 || Dodgers || 7–9 (10) || Jack Banta (10–6) || Ken Heintzelman (17–10) || None || 36,765 || 81–73 |- | style="text-align:left;" | Sunday curfew [a]The second game on May 8, 1949, was called due to the Pennsylvania Sunday curfew at the end of the sixth inning with the score 8–1.Major Leagues https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=vNUNAAAAIBAJ&sjid=RWoDAAAAIBAJ&pg=2898%2C4232612 June 12, 2017 Pittsburgh Post-Gazette May 9, 1949 Pittsburgh, PA 16Nicholson's Hitting Gains Phils Split https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=vNUNAAAAIBAJ&sjid=RWoDAAAAIBAJ&pg=3382%2C4242187 June 12, 2017 Associated Press (AP) Pittsburgh Post-Gazette May 9, 1949 Pittsburgh, PA 17 The second game was halted after six innings by the Pennsylvania Blue Law curfew.Philadelphia Phillies 8, Cincinnati Reds 1 (2) https://www.retrosheet.org/boxesetc/1949/B05082PHI1949.htm retrosheet.org June 12, 2017 May 8, 1949 Sunday curfew [b]The second game on May 29, 1949, was called due to the Pennsylvania Sunday curfew at the end of the seventh inning with the score 0–3.Giants Win Double Bill From Phils https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=OZBHAAAAIBAJ&sjid=gv4MAAAAIBAJ&pg=2433%2C2872951 June 11, 2017 Associated Press (AP) Meriden Record May 30, 1949 Meriden, CT 4Giants Take Twin Bill From Phils; Nortons Defeat Insilcos In No-Hitter 6-1: Thomson's Homer Decides 15-Inning Marathon, 4-2 https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=P99IAAAAIBAJ&sjid=YQINAAAAIBAJ&pg=1235%2C4525891 June 11, 2017 Meriden Daily Journal May 30, 1949 Meriden, CT 4 The nightcap was cut short at the end of seven innings by Philadelphia's ancient curfew[.]New York Giants 3, Philadelphia Phillies 0 (2) https://www.retrosheet.org/boxesetc/1949/B05292PHI1949.htm retrosheet.org June 11, 2017 May 29, 1949 Schedule change [c]The original schedule indicated single games on August 13 (which became a double-header after the July 7 postponement), 14The Majors https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=yz4bAAAAIBAJ&sjid=Q00EAAAAIBAJ&pg=6669%2C4057879 June 13, 2017 The Pittsburgh Press August 13, 1949 Pittsburgh, PA 6 Source indicates a double-header on Saturday followed by a single game on Sunday.

The Giants were ahead, 3-2, at the time with one out and Willard Marshall on third. He raced home with the fourth run. The fans began booing and throwing pop bottles, papers and beer cans. Umpire Lee Ballanfant was hit on the neck with a bottle and Al Barlick was hit in the back with a tomato. All three umpires then gathered at home plate and signaled the game was over. Eddie Sawyer, the Phillies' manager, left the field with the comment: 'It was the most stupid decision I have ever seen.'

Ashburn and the entire Phils' team charged in to argue with the umpires claiming that Ashburn had caught Lafata's drive. The first baseman's smash was a low liner which Ashburn grabbed near his shoe tops. Barr ruled Ashburn trapped the ball allowing it to touch the ground. George [sic] Ballanfant said he has been an umpire for more than 25 years and 'this is the first time something like this ever happened.' Neither Barlick nor Barr could recall any similar incident that resulted in a forfeiture of a game. 'Usually,' Barr said, 'a game is forfeited by a club's or a player's actions–not the fans.' Barr was at second base at the time of the disputed play. He said he saw everything. 'Ashburn never caught the ball,' Barr said. Of course that's the way I saw it. It's a matter of judgment and I guess I'm entitled to my decision.' The three umpires told an Associated Press reporter that the Phillies manager 'was not at fault.' The forfeit stunned the Phils. Manager Eddie Sawyer called it a 'stupid decision by the umpire.' He added: 'But they're the boss on the field, so there's nothing we can do about it. We can't protest that decision to anybody.'Umpires Call Game Following Fruit, Paper, Bottle Barrage: Giants Win by Forfeit Over Phillies https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=VRg_AAAAIBAJ&sjid=S08MAAAAIBAJ&pg=6066%2C4418903 June 22, 2017 Associated Press (AP) The Windsor Daily Star August 22, 1949 Windsor, ON 2 (Section 2) A 15-minute barrage of pop bottles, over-ripe fruit and wads of paper forced Umpire Al Barlick to give the Giants a 9-0 forfeit victory in the nightcap of a Shibe Park doubleheader. He said he did it 'for the good of the people, baseball, and the players.' ... The ire of the Phil rooters—19,742 strong—was directed at Umpire George Barr. ... [Barlick] acted under a National League rule which says a game may be declared a forfeit if the field is not cleared within 15 minutes after the start of a rhubarb. ... [T]he pop bottles began to fly with jeering shouts of 'Kill the umpire.' ... 'I had to think of the safety of everyone,' Barlick said. 'And that meant fans sitting in the lower stands and were in danger of being struck by pop bottles, fruit and other missiles being thrown from the upper stands.'New York Giants 4, Philadelphia Phillies 2 (2) https://www.retrosheet.org/boxesetc/1949/B08212PHI1949.htm retrosheet.org June 22, 2017 August 21, 1949 1B umpire George Barr ruled Richie Ashburn trapped Joe Lafata's fly that went for a double; fans barraged the field with pop bottles and the game was forfeited to the Giants[.] Contemporary newspaper accounts indicate a 9–0 final score as a result of the forfeiture,Major Leagues https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=onxIAAAAIBAJ&sjid=imoDAAAAIBAJ&pg=3454%2C1128550 June 22, 2017 Pittsburgh Post-Gazette August 22, 1949 Pittsburgh, PA 14 but Baseball-Reference indicates a 2–4 score and Phillies loss.New York Giants at Philadelphia Phillies Box Score, August 21, 1949 https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/PHI/PHI194908212.shtml baseball-reference.com sports-reference.com August 21, 1949 Roster 1949 Philadelphia Phillies Roster Pitchers 39 Charlie Bicknell 20 Hank Borowy 30 Blix Donnelly 27 Ken Heintzelman 35 Jim Konstanty 34 Russ Meyer 41 Bob Miller 36 Robin Roberts 19 Schoolboy Rowe 28 Curt Simmons 37 Jocko Thompson 22 Ken Trinkle Catchers 29 Stan Lopata 21 Andy Seminick 25 Ken Silvestri 26 Hal Wagner Infielders  7 Buddy Blattner  9 Putsy Caballero  3 Bill Glynn  9 Mike Goliat 33,17 Granny Hamner  6 Willie Jones  5 Eddie Miller  8 Dick Sisler  4 Eddie Waitkus Outfielders  1 Richie Ashburn 16 Johnny Blatnik 14 Del Ennis 17 Stan Hollmig 15 Jackie Mayo 12 Bill Nicholson 33 Ed Sanicki Other batters  3 Bert Haas Manager 24 Eddie Sawyer Coaches 11 Benny Bengough 32 Dusty Cooke 38 George Earnshaw 40 Maje McDonnell 31 Cy Perkins Player stats Batting Starters by position Note: Pos = Position; G = Games played; AB = At bats; H = Hits; Avg. = Batting average; HR = Home runs; RBI = Runs batted in Pos Player G AB H Avg.
