1949 NL Final Standings

October 3, 1949

  Here are the 1949 NL Final Standings. The Brooklyn Dodgers ran away with the NL Pennant. The close Pennant race that occurred in the actual 1949 season never materialized. Brooklyn had a 9 game lead over the 2nd place St. Louis Cardinals in the middle of July, and a 10 game lead in the middle of August. Brooklyn would never lead by less than double digits the rest of the season. The Cardinals had an excellent season, but they were no match for the thoroughly dominating Dodgers.
