1958-09-10 The Sporting News Baseball Magazine Contents

1958/09/10 — 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:

  • “Strong Contenders for ’58 Boquets in Majors” cartoon by Amadee features Jackie Jensen, Bob Turley, Danny Murtaugh, Ernie Banks and Warren Spahn. Headline is “Jensen, Banks Reach for MVP Awards” with article “Turley, Spahn Top Bidders for Pitcher of Year Honor — Duren and Cepeda Lead Races for Rookie Citations; Murtaugh Wins Wide Support for Managerial Accolade”
  • Also on the cover is “Mays and Avila to Play Mexico Series — 14-Game Junket Scheduled by All-Star Aggregations Led by Willie and Bobby”
  • Dick Hyde “On Top Pitching from Down Under — Nat Reliever in First 48 Appearances Boasted 1.86 ERA”
  • “Farm Products Keeping Braves in Stride — Willey, Pizarro and Joe Jay Have Combined 21-11 Mark”

  • Tom Brewer’s “Comeback Boosts Red Sox Second Place Bid — Set Back by Case of Mumps, Tommy Made Slow Start and Had Control Trouble”
  • “Splinter Puts in Plug for Umpires in Hall — ‘They Should Get More Recognition'” with small pic of Ted Williams and another of umpire Bill Summers
  • “Minneapolis Clears Snag on Major Bid — Tax Board Okays $9,000,000 ‘If and When’ Bond Issue — St. Paul Prepares to Make Separate Try for Big Time”
  • “Chisox Never Will Move Out, Asserts Chuck — Despite Attendance Decline, Club Will Finish in Black for ’58 — Chuck Comiskey
  • “Giants, Dodgers Hold Holiday Clambake — Morning, Afternoon, Night Festivals Marked Big Series”
  • “Mound Woes Curb Dodgers’ Drive for First-Division Spot — Aches and Pains Handicap Slab Corps; Furillo Tops ’57 Homer, RBI Figures”
