And Giants attendance had seriously eroded over the previous 2-3 years. There's a reason they moved west. They only drew like 5-600,00 in 57, and not much more than that in 56. A lot of people don't remember/realize that no matter what the Dodgers had done, the Giants were gone anyways. Stoneham had the rights to Minneapolis/St Paul, as he had a AAA team there, and was ready to move THERE, when O'Malley suckered him into going to San Francisco, as O'M needed a second team on the coast to make the move to LA realistic - the NL would not let him move unless there was a second team to make the trip out there worthwhile for visiting teams.
