Their nickname is pronounced "EE-light" with a Southern twang. They migrated from Nashville to Columbus, Ohio to Washington D.C. and finally Baltimore. They won the Negro National Title in 1939 and 1949. The Elite Giants gave Joe Black, Junior Gilliam and Hall of Fame catcher Roy Campanella their initial exposure to professional baseball before becoming "Bums" with the Brooklyn Dodgers. The 1942 season was the best-ever for the Giants when they posted a 37-15 record, tops in the Negro National League.
