my interpretation about that play is that throughout the movie Dottie is better than her little sister at everything (better player, better looking, bigger star, etc.) and in that final play the little sister finally owns her bigger sister, sort of a coming of age theme
I disagree. The whole backstory tht was sledgehammered home, was Kit's jealousy of Dottie. I think Dottie dropped the ball so Kit could play the hero for once. And I think Kit might even have known it - deep down.

At what point did she make this conscious decision? Before she came BACK to the team in the middle of the championship series because she realized how bad she wanted it? What about during that final game when she was playing her arse off and helping her team to win the game with great hitting and a top notch performance on defense? Or was it in that flash of an instant when Kit was barreling towards home (defying the stop call mind you) and Dottie secured the throw and turned to face the runner? She clearly couldn't have planned it ahead of time, so you must believe she made this conflicting decision in a couple of seconds.
And the movie then made no mention or even hint of it afterward. Yet some of you people still push this theory with no support...

Right, that's why Dottie told the pitcher to throw her high fastballs because she could not hit them and could not lay off of them.
