Beyond The Game: There's no crying (and few women) in baseball!

On this show, we will hear from #WinningWomen looking to highlight
the history of women in baseball, as well as create opportunities
for the next generation of females playing America's pastime. A
League of Their Own brought to light a lost history of women in the
game.  Since, the cast continues to offer support to sharing
the stories of the past, while paving the way for the future. 
On July 1st, members of the cast of A League of Their Own accompany
players from the All America Girls Professional Baseball League
(AABPBL) to celebrate the Rockford Peaches at MCU Park in Brooklyn,
NY.  Megan Cavanagh (Marla Hooch), Tracy Reiner (Betty
"Spaghetti" Horn), Shirley Burkovich (AAGPBL player) and Maybelle
Blair (AAGPBL player) were honored by the Cyclones. The quartet
participated in a Winning Women Power Panel with fellow Winning
Women honorees Perry Barber (umpire) and Mary Beck (MLB VP of
Marketing & Promotion).   The show will include clips from
the Cyclones celebration of the film, an interview with Perry
Barber, and other opportunities to grow the game of baseball for
girls and women. Show Notes AAGPBL official website Brooklyn
