Jake looking like a bona fide, major league hitter there.



There is nothing that he can't do. And he looks awesome doing it.



The Mops picture is terrific, but they missed a chance to do something with it. I don't like how Noah is in the insert.



I love that the Mets completed sweeps and the Yankees are swept in both covers. If your entire knowledge of the 2019 season was these two covers, you'd have thought it was a terrific year.

Two outstanding pictures.



I'm going with BotM based on my personal bias for night game shots, deeper saturation, and outlining. Also, the "mops" thing is a nice variation on a cliche.
