Joshua Prager “broke” the story that the Giants used an elaborate system of electronic buzzers to pass along stolen signals from the outfield, which he incorporated into his book, The Echoing Green: The Untold Story of Bobby Thomson, Ralph Branca and the Shot Heard Round the World in The Wall Street Journal, so I thought it would be appropriate to start off the obituaries and other articles with Stephen Miller’s piece.
- New York Daily News: Mike Lupica’s column. Mays and Irvin recall Thomson. And an editorial.
- New York Post: Mike Vacarro’s column. The Post‘s obituary. And questions linger about the home run.
- An obit from The Washington Post.
I wouldn’t be surprised if his death started renewed interest in his life, via books.
