A sampling of baseball-related headlines from the Newseum, as well as occasionally some websites, with the occasional note from me on what they are talking about:

El Universal (Cartagena, Colombia): RANGERS, ARRIBA

El Nuevo Diario (Managua, Nicaragua): Texas pone contra la pared a Toronto (It means either “Texas placed against the wall in Toronto”- referring to how it took 14 innings, but I think it might more mean “Texas puts Toronto’s backs against the wall”, as in they have pushed Toronto to the brink of elimination)
