Voted against Landslide last round but went with it here...

The second cover has the story, and a great photo go with it, but totally bungles the angle by shifting focus from Piazza onto Seaver.

Looks like a landslide for Landslide.

THAT'S TERRIFIC apparently wasn't terrific enough, as it loses in a landslide to METS IN A LANDSLIDE. This is the first third-round poll to close, and the Daily News secures the first spot in the Elite Eight. This is one of two remaining Yoenis Cespedes covers in the competition.
