Though I lost the official AL Rookie of the Year award to Eddie Murray, I won The Sporting News version for 1977 after being acquired from Pittsburgh along with Tony Armas.
The Sporting News (TSN) has selected Rookies of the Year since
1946. The page covers the periods when TSN gave the award to a single
player either league (or from both leagues in the first three years). TSN
awarded one rookie in all of baseball from 1946-1948, and one player from
each league from 1949-1956, 1959-1960, 1962, and 2004 forward.
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.
