It'll only happen if MLB enforces a co-ed rule at some point and mandates a certain amount of playing time for females at certain positions. If that happens I will have long since become not a fan of baseball.

Not in a legit manner anyway. Some bullshite PR move? Yes. Transgender lefty with a 98 mph fb and nasty curveball? Probably.

Probably watching even less than I already don't watch MLB.

Don't put too much stock in that. Not very women do fastpitch seriously into their adult years - if as many did as guys do that record would be broken pretty quickly.

That said, it isn't just musculature but also height and wingspan. I maybe could see an achievable max of 80 or so - pretty damn respectable, just not competitive at the MLB level. But I'm guessing here.

In the left field bleachers, I've never been able to catch an MLB souvenir, even in an empty Minute Maid Park.

Well, if there's a transgender lady (man?) that takes a crapload of steroids and testosterone and does surgery early on to augment bone/muscle structure... Would that person be allowed in MLB? There are bans right now... Otherwise this is pretty much impossible.

You mean the first "woman"/dicktucker pitches? Because it's the same thing apparently.

It won't happen, unless they "equalize" the playing field by moving the woman pitcher up to where a fastball mound is... but then that wouldn't happen because a line drive would get back to her too quickly and probably kill her.

AT&T trolling America and generating lot of hits for their YouTube page.

ETA: Also, when the first woman pitches int he majors, I will be watching as we see the longest home run ever in MLB history.

Hopefully I will sitting in Heaven sipping on whiskey with my dad and grandad listening to a live Johnny Cash concert.

If not I will be packing my bags and moving out of America.

Eventually somebody will come up with some bullshite way of making it happen and if you point out the absurdity you will be ridiculed.

Think back to 1976 if you are old enough:

"Someday Bruce Jenner is going to become a woman with enormous positive hype and anybody who disagrees with the attractiveness of the scenario will be pressured to conform to the positive sentiment."

And some people say there will never be a woman pitcher

This is possible. That's the only way I see it happening. Of course a freak of nature could come along that defies the rules of human physiology.
