Reading Baseball: Little League; Big Dreams

Nearly 50 years ago, Little League officials decided to allow girls to play youth baseball.  In his latest edition of Reading Baseball, Pete Peterson examines whether a girl will ever make it to the big leagues.

Reading Baseball is a series of original essays and commentaries by Richard "Pete" Peterson, author of Pops: The Willie Stargell Story and Growing Up With Clemente.
