Opis

Did a girl really strike out the mighty Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig? Jackie Mitchell was challenged with what seemed like the impossible, face the New York Yankees and members of Murderers Row in Chattanooga in 1931. How did this young woman, just 18 years old, find herself on the baseball diamond tasked with striking out some of the most legendary baseball stars of all time? Was it all a stunt orchestrated by Joe Engel, the "P.T. Barnum of the Bush Leagues," or were her curves too much for them? Based on the true story of Jackie Mitchell, the young woman that once pitched for the Chattanooga Lookouts against the New York Yankees in the spring of 1931.
