Quotable!
"The more self-centered and egotistical a guy is, the better ballplayer he's going to be. You take a team with twenty-five assholes and I'll show you a pennant. I'll show you the New York Yankees."
--Bill 'Spaceman' Lee, Boston Red Sox pitcher

 

TSN Rookie All Star Winners

By Patrick Mondout

The Sporting News (TSN) announced "Rookie All-Star" teams from 1932 to 1960. They were forerunners to the Topps Rookie All-Star teams.

Eligibility varied by year. Early on the awards were simply a column by Dick Farrington and players could not have exceeded 10 games played or three months on a Major League roster the prior year. The limits were liberalized over time and the honors were eventually voted on by the Baseball Writers Association of American (BBWAA).

We have listed the positions as The Sporting News did at the time even when we know that a played did not play the position they are listed at (this applies mostly to outfielders specifically listed at one of the three positions).

Share Your Memories!

Our sites have always been by you and about you. If you check our TV Forums or our Technology & Science forums, you'll find literally thousands of messages from fans of 1970s TV shows, survivors of hurricanes or aircraft accidents, etc. from all over the world sharing their memories, asking questions, making comments. Our baseball section is new, but don't let that stop you from sharing your memories of the first game you went to, your favorite player, a now-forgotten stadium, etc. Of course you can also ask questions, post trivia, tell the world what you think of Barry Bonds, or just read what others are saying.
