I can't determine detailed content from the Page of the 1971 Illustrated Digest of Baseball as you provided only an image without textual information. However, this period in baseball was marked by significant events and players. The early 1970s saw the continuation of the New York Yankees' legacy, as well as the dominance of the Baltimore Orioles in the American League. In the National League, the Pittsburgh Pirates and Cincinnati Reds were formidable forces, showcasing talents like Willie Stargell and Johnny Bench. This era was also notable for the emergence of players such as Reggie Jackson, who would become one of the game's great sluggers. The 1971 season itself was highlighted by the Pittsburgh Pirates' World Series victory over the Baltimore Orioles, a series remembered for showcasing the talents of Roberto Clemente.
