There are girls playing Baseball - not Softball: who in this group are you?

Girls are under-represented in images, online web sites: let's change that, now, at WePlay! If you are a girl, or know of one playing on your team or in your league: let's get some recognition here and start a conversation to bring more girls into Baseball.

Softball seems fun for girls who play it, but Baseball is fun for girls, too!

One more thing: boys who think girls can't play may want to look around at the girls who do play, support them in any way you can to get better and get more chances to play the game. That is all it takes for a girl to play Baseball!

Girls: you are always allowed to play. It is up to you to step up and show that you have the right stuff when:

- striking out the batter when looking;

- throwing out the runner trying to steal 2nd Base;

- sliding safe into Third, before running Home to score the game-winning run, on a sacrifice fly to Right...
