    Seriously, when the hell will women get to the major leagues? And I will be SO PISSED if they create a separate women's league. Because that worked so well for the WNBA. Just let us all play together!!!

    Oh, baseball. How I do love thee. And badass young girls with arm-cannons? Even more love. That is awesome. And it makes me want to learn how to pitch- change-ups and sliders and, of course, my favorite: BREAKING BALLS. That is and actual baseball term, for the non-baseballers out there.

    Being a pitcher is great for women, as it's a position in which you don't want to have balls.

    I was there and cheered for her! It was a beautiful July-like day for Keystone Kops baseball. The Mets sucked just a bit less than the Nats did. I'm hoping Minaya is looking into signing this young woman up as a fifth starter.

    @chritter: Fifth? I'd say she's third starter material at this point. Santana, Maine once he's fully rehabed, Mackenzie, Pelfrey, Perez.

    Could he say "against the boys" a few more times? OMG, against BOYS?? It's not like 12 year old boys are some kind of ferocious physical competition for 12 year old girls.

    I am unclear on this: Did she throw out all the pitches?


    Because she probably could've beaten the Nats, too.

    @athousandmillion: I loved Joey Cora! When my junior hockey team was eliminated from playoffs, I cried. My mom said "You're just like Little Joey Cora crying on second base!" My mom is rad.


    I am going back to watching baseball, since the return of Griffey. Also I have a weird softspot for the Jays. Yeah I don't get it...

    @CollegeBookworm: That's why I didn't change my allegiance from the Orioles when we got a team. The O's aren't always much better, but we're not starting from scratch and we seem to be doing okay this season. Plus, I grew up on Cal Ripkin.
