What I find interesting about that SI cover is that it must be showing batting practice, given that his teammate is catching and there is no umpire, yet he looks so determined and, more importantly, there is such a crowd. Pardon if this is an ignorant question but was one picture superimposed or otherwise placed with another-- the precursor to photo-shopping? It looks like there's an aura around the catcher's head.
EDITED TO ADD my condolences aslo, Mr. Rosen was a very classy man.
