Of course, much of that was due to Roger Angell‘s excellent essays. Yes, there have been other contributors, but none with the gravitas or tenure of Angell.

There have been plenty of covers and cartoons about the national pastime. Many, of the former, including the cover of the current issue, right, were done by Mark Ulriksen (Bookshelf Conversation from 2014 here). And I recently acquired a collection of the latter in The New Yorker Book of Baseball Cartoons, which was originally published in 2003 and revised in 2012.
