Robinson went on to bat .297, score 125 runs, steal 29 bases and be named the very first Rookie of the Year. The Dodgers won the National League title and went on to lose to the New York Yankees in the 1947 World Series. This season was dramatized in the movie 42. Due to the suspension of Leo Durocher for a year for "conduct detrimental to baseball", coach Clyde Sukeforth managed the first 2 games of the season on an emergency basis, but declined to manage for the full season, so Burt Shotton took over as manager for the rest of the season. The Dodgers had a home attendance of 1.8 million paying fans, a National League record at the time. On road, the Dodgers drew 1.9 million paying fans, also a National League record at that time. ]]> customchampionring@gmail.com (Randy Chan) https://www.customchampionshipring.net/1947-brooklyn-dodgers-national-league-championship-ring-p-452.html Fri, 31 Jul 2015 08:32:25 -0500 185.00 USD 452 0.5 10000 NL1947
