Turnstyle: The SABR Journal of Baseball Arts: Issue 4

TURNSTYLE is the literary magazine of the Society for American Baseball Research. Although SABR Is known for publishing baseball history, biographical research, and statistical analysis, in TURNSTYLE we get to see the more artistic side of loving baseball, through poetry, short stories, and creative nonfiction, as well as paintings, illustrations, and interviews with artists.

In this issue we have several poems with baseball cards as their theme, including one from Jason A. Schwartz with cards embedded, and even some of the “found poetry” of the late Jerry Remy, curated and shaped by Eric Poulin. There are also reminiscent essays by Steve Ginader, Adam Young, and Bryan Steverson, short stories from Cesar Love and Stanley Enzweiler, and an interview with artist and historian Gary Cieradkowski, along with many other literary delights.
