On the cover of this week's New Yorker: a Saul Steinberg drawing of a Milwaukee Braves catcher.
The drawing is from 1954, when the great artist followed what was Milwaukee's baseball team back then. At the link, there's also a slideshow of drawings from Steinberg's baseball sketchbook, including a couple really nice New York Yankees drawings and a fine Milwaukee Brave (#5 (I especially like all the writing on the bat)).

Eddie Mathews, Warren Spahn, Hank Aaron, Lew Burdette were the Braves. What are Brewers?
Our team is named after beer.
I've always liked this artist. Another artist that I like: Ralph Steadman. They are somehow similar. Steadman is Steinberg on crack. Couldn't make the slideshow work. Clicking on the 1954 sketch did nothing.
Easy way to view works by famous artists: Google Google's image option.
Braves next to last in tonight's game. Brewers came in second.
