Winker’s walkoff only got one of the 3 covers. Did a Judge belch get the others?

Literally one in game action shot of a swing, a pitch, a throw, anything. Pathetic.

It's not the Best Action Picture Derby, it's the Tabloid Cover Derby
Oh I know. These covers give tabloids a bad name.

I would consider every one of those covers to be an action shot, since they all take place on the field while the game is being played.

Wasn’t that a Bon Jovi song?

Strong field and subpar composition precluded a vote on its behalf, but I like Rally of the Sun punwise.
Hope for the best. Expect the Mets.

Having been so traumatized by the terrible name-on-back font sizes of 2024, I never really fully noticed how downsized the uniform elements look on the front of this year's road grays as well.

I’m sure I was over the moon at the time but I can’t even remember the Lindor Padres game.
That’s how good he was this year.

Instead of having the exact same picture (as competing papers often have) the three Alvarez covers appear to be all the same angle but just fractions of a second apart.
I went with GREEN LIGHT as the best of the three
I like the way they worked the text and sub-heading around the action in SNAKE CHARMERS
And, of course, HAIR FORCE ONE
