Adrienne Grunwald

Women have played baseball in the U.S. for over a century, yet it is still considered a man’s game. From the barnstorming players of the 1930s to the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League of the 1940s, their presence has continually challenged who belongs on the field. Today’s generation carries that fight forward. On the cusp of the first professional women’s baseball league in decades, girls of all ages traveled to Sparks, Nevada for Baseball For All’s National Girls Baseball Tournament to reclaim the game for themselves.
