The only thing better than celebrating baseball history is being there when it's made. Just missing my friend, Shirley B. Congrats Maybelle Blair, IWBC, and the city of Rockford! #APlaceofTheirOwn

Got my baseball comics haul from @ellenlindna (find her on Etsy!). I’m stoked to dig in and read all about women in baseball throughout history! But also….that “baseball nerd” sticker is making me do my happy dance! 💃🏽 Make sure to check all her amazing work out!!!

Mamie Peanut Johnson was born 9/27/1935 in Ridgeway, SC. She pitched 3 seasons in the Negro Leagues. The All American Professional Girls Baseball League refused to allow her to tryout. She talked to us about having 2 strikes against her: being Black and being a girl. #Baseball

“Identical access” Melissa Ludtke v Kuhn. This lawsuit marked a pivotal moment in sports journalism, as a federal court ruled on 9/25/78 that barring female reporters from MLB locker rooms violated equal protection rights, forcing Kuhn to lift the ban #BaseballandtheLaw 223-36
