1958-04-30 The Sporting News Baseball Magazine Contents

1958/04/30 — ITEM DESCRIPTION: Oversized, appx. 11-3/4″ X 16-1/2″ classic The Sporting News issue printed on newsprint. The image at the left is a cropped out portion of the cover (too large to fit the whole thing on my scanner!) and there are other images below from inside this issue. Classic Sporting News from when it was “The Baseball Paper of the World”!

There is just too much packed into each issue of The Sporting News to list it all, but I have paged through this entire issue and here are some of the highlights:

  • “There’s One on Every Team” cartoon by Basset on front cover
  • Headline is “NL Finding Rich Gravy in LA Bowl” with article “Rivals Share $$ Feast at Dodger Dish — Coliseum to Produce Plenty of Revenue–Also Lots of Home Runs and Beanballs”
  • And also on the cover is “Bombers’ Draw Cut by Dodgers’. Giants’ Publicity — Yankees Get Secondary Play on Sport Pages Because of Interest in Coast Debut”
  • “Scheffing’s Shook-Up Cubs Stress Youth — ‘It’s Young Man’s Game,’ Says Bob, Putting Teeth in Words”
  • “First Hitter Since Mantle to Make Big Leap to Majors — Pinson Rockets to Redlegs from C Loop” with large cartoon of Vada Pinson by Amadee
  • Harvey Kuenn’s “Gilt-Edged Glove, Bat Help to Spur Bengals — Ex-Shortstop Now at Home in Center Field; McHale Sees End of Leg Trouble”
  • “Rhubarbs, Freakish Hits, Beanballs Recall Ebbets Field Days — Like Old Times at Dodgers’ New Home”
  • “Los Angeles Gate Pace Better Than Dodger Field Gait — Coliseum Debut Marred by Loss of Series to Giants”
  • Herb Score “Completes Long Road Back on Sharp Curve — 3-2 Pitch to Kuenn Tells Tribe Story”
  • “It’s Home Run or No Count for Braves in Early Games — Long Ball Accounts of r20 of Club’s First 25 Runs — Mathews, Aaron Lead”
  • Rep. Kenneth Keating “Labels Sports Bill ‘Potential Threat’ to O.B.”
  • R.C. Stevens
