* Stan Musial - St. Louis Cardinals
* 1st Grandfather HR in MLB history
This 50+ page newspaper has a three column headline on the front page of the sport's section (inside): "Musial Homer Helps Cards Win 13th of 14" with related photo and box scores.
Cardinals left fielder Stan Musial becomes the first grandfather in big league history to hit a home run. The 42-year-old new grandparent accomplishes the feat in his first at-bat since the birth of his grandson earlier in the day.
Other news of the day throughout. A few small binding holes along the spine, otherwise in good condition.
