It's about time. Gifts, Talent & Hard work are blind to Gender. As we should all be. This is the only review I've ever given. I'm a lifetime athlete and I never thought of my gender as a woman to be anything but that. I'm happy things are changing in the world for women across the board in professional sports. Oh, Soccer is my sport And yes, I'd have gone pro had there been a professional league for women by 1980's.

When I recommend a show about a female MLB pitcher, people laugh at me. "Unrealistic, could never happen", they say. These people never even give the show a chance. Well, the show is quite good! It is fun to watch, and deals with much more than Ginny pitching on the mound. They really develop her character as well as the other characters on the team, most notably the catcher, played by Mark-Paul Gosselaar, who is also excellent. The show deals with issues such as Ginny's manager, the team's management, her brother taking advantage of her fame, to name a few. After watching the first 10 episodes, I have to say the show is much better than other shows out there. Keep up the good work!

Pitch is inspirational and great story changer to every woman worldwide who are making a difference to be on the sport they play and beyond. Women are very good equality as Men no matter who or what type of rules they can't then they're so wrong and totally sexist. Anyone is good at playing any sport such as football, tennis, volleyball, basketball, baseball, golf you name it. Hoping someday the MLB and NFL will have a woman to become part of a national team bringing inspiration though history changing beyond everyone's destiny.
