first female baseball players? where can i find info about them? a league of their own?

Question:

Answer: Oh, you mean the All American Girls Pro Baseball League, started by Philip K. Wrigley, when World War 2 started, and all the stars (of baseball) were off in the war? Yes, I've done research on it myself. If you google it, things will come up, but here are some sites: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AAGPBL http://www.aagpbl.org/ http://www.britannica.com/eb/article-9124901/All-American-Girls-Professional-Baseball-League http://www.baseball1.com/bb-data/bbd-wb1.html Those are some sites, but you can definatley find more through Google The movie "A League of Their Own" is my favorite movie. Though fictionaly (and a comedy) you can find information in it, about the AAGPBL. Like, the uniforms, the rules, and the fact every girl had to attend charm school. I read a book called "Belles at the Ballpark" by Diane Star Helmer There's also another book called "Girls of Summer", but Ihaven't gotten around to reading it (and I also forgot the authors name, but I'm positive her first name was Lois). There's also a fiction book called "Mickey and Me'' by Dan Gutman. Hope I could help (I researched it out of boredom last summer).
