Quotes
Philadelphia Owner Bob Carpenter (far left), Giants Owner Horace Stoneham (second from left), National League President Warren Giles (second from right) and Walter O’Malley.
“I spent several years in San Francisco as a youth and I always loved it. It was my first choice when Walter and I decided to move. Walter is certainly one of the leading figures, but I wouldn’t say he controlled the game. He’s too much of a politician to demand things or insist that he get his way. At any rate, I for one have always found Walter’s judgment to be very good.”
