Turnstyle is the journal of baseball arts and literature produced by SABR’s Baseball and the Arts Research Committee. Although SABR is known for publishing baseball history, biographical research, and statistical analysis, in Turnstyle we get to see the more artistic side of baseball, through poetry, short stories, and creative nonfiction, as well as paintings, illustrations, and interviews with artists.
In this issue we have several poems with baseball cards as their theme, including one from Jason A. Schwartz with cards embedded, and even some of the “found poetry” of the late Jerry Remy, curated and shaped by Eric Poulin. There are also reminiscent essays by Steve Ginader, Adam Young, and Bryan Steverson, short stories from Cesar Love and Stanley Enzweiler, and an interview with artist and historian Gary Cieradkowski, along with many other literary delights.
The first issue of Turnstyle in 2019 interspersed contemporary creations by SABR members with examples of baseball literature from the past, while Issue 2 in 2020 was filled entirely with contemporary works. Issue 3 in 2023 included poems, photos, paintings, and essays on baseball away from the ballpark.
