PITCH is the dramatic and inspirational story of a young pitcher who becomes the first woman to play Major League Baseball. A beautiful, tough and gifted athlete, GINNY BAKER is vaulted into instant fame when she’s called up by the San Diego Padres to make her Major League debut. Like any rookie, Ginny must prove herself to her teammates. Foremost among them is MIKE LAWSON, the team’s ruggedly handsome star catcher. There’s instant chemistry between them, although neither dares admit it. After all, Mike is captain of the team and a few of his players don’t even want Ginny on the field. One of the players watching Ginny’s back is center fielder BLIP SANDERS, an old friend from the minor leagues. Guiding her is her agent/confidante AMELIA SLATER. Amelia saw Ginny’s star potential early on and left her previous job as a Hollywood publicist to concentrate on the young phenom.
The end of Ginny’s improbable journey is the beginning of an almost impossible one: representing her gender as she embarks on a successful baseball career under the glare of the white-hot media spotlight. It’s a goal hard enough for anyone to achieve – except this player is also a woman, who happens to be the most important historical figure in sports since Jackie Robinson. This season, Ginny Baker will be the other woman trying to break into one of the oldest, most exclusive men’s clubs in the country.

I'm not sure what reaction you're hoping for, but it won't be positive

remember the silver bullets
i remember their coach talking shite, and saying that his female players could play.
i flip it on and they are getting their asses handed to them by an Army base team. And then a few days later, getting rocked by some guys from a VFW hall. The VFW hall had a guy who had to be pushing 280.

Kylie Bunbury could get it.

If you have a prayer of getting any believability out of this, she better be a crafty lefty.
ETA - and not white, but they've already thought that through.

Racist. This is the real female baseball pioneer:
Holding the white women down.

Apparently her dad taught her the super secret pitch... a screwball.
