When a team makes it to the championship. Like in baseball a team wins the pennant when they make it to the world series.
To win the National League or the American League Championship in major league baseball. The two pennant winners face off in the World Series
I don"t entirely get what you mean by Giants. The San Francisco Giants, originally the New York (baseball) Giants won a number of Pennants . League championships are often called Pennants, as I am writing this the Pennant races are going on between the Yankees and Tigers for the American League Flag. As a pennant is a type of flag, they are also called Flags. You would have to look it up. Pennant refers to the League championship- not the World Series. Look under Baseball. The term Flag in the sense you apply it to Baseball pennant winners, is not done in Football.
The pennant race is a baseball term used to describe the time period towards the end of the year, around mid-late august and on to the playoffs. The pennant is the name for the championship of the division, whether it be the national league or the American league, and the race is all the games leading up to the World Series that determine who will represent each league.
No such thing in baseball.
