During World War II, many of the professional baseball players went into the service to fight in the war.  This left the country without professional baseball.  While women were stepping into men's jobs in other areas, there was no reason why women couldn't play professional baseball too!  So, the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League was born.  This is the story of one woman who was lucky enough to play in the league.
