K.C. Allen - "LA Times Baseball 2019 Season Preview"
Published Sunday March 24, 2019
For my "One Minute One Image Project," I chose to present about the image on the front cover of the "LA Times Baseball 2019 Season Preview." This was published on March 24, 2019, which was the Sunday before the start of the 2019 MLB season, which began on Thursday of that week. The image shows two star players from both Los Angeles baseball teams. Mike Trout of the LA Angels and Justin Turner from the LA Dodgers. This image really inspires me because #1) I love baseball; and #2) I am a huge fan of both of these players. The reason why these two were selected to be on the front cover is because of the impact they make on their team. Turner, who is 34 years old, is one of the leaders for the Dodgers. At his age, most people tend to say that he's in the decline stage in his career, however he is not showing signs of slowing down, as last year, he posted a .312 batting average and is trying to lead the Dodgers to their first World Series title since 1988. The photograph was taken by K.C. Alfred, who is a photographer at the San Diego Union-Tribune.
