The Sporting News Rookie of the Year Award
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Sporting News Rookie of the Year Award was established in 1946 by The Sporting News (TSN).
- In 1947-48, and again in 1950, a single award was given for all of Major League Baseball.
- In 1949 and since 1951, TSN has given an award to a player from each league.
- From 1963 through 2003, TSN split the rookie award into two separate categories:
- Rookie Pitcher of the Year
- Rookie Player of the Year
- In 2004 those two awards were discontinued in favor of the unified award below.
This is the list of ballplayers awarded by year, name, team, league and position.
