The ReWatchable team comes together for a movie viewing of A League of Their Own and they get emotional over women in baseball once more!
\n
\n\n\n\nHosts: Danielle, Ariana, Kendra, Natalie, and Brittany
\n
\n\n\n\nFun Facts:
\nKendra is putting together a fandom wall in her living room: items include Hogwarts, The Witcher, Baby Yoda, and Lost. Brittany had a baseball heavy day with watching some live sports and then reading about all of the rules that will be in play for the upcoming MLB season. Natalie is now a single issue person: we only talk about The Old Guard. But it has given her a window into single movies that inspire a fandom springing up around it. Ariana has watched two perfect things -- The Baby-Sitters Club and Palm Springs. For more feel-good TV, Danielle has watched Baby Daddy, Young and Hungry, and Warrior Nun.

\n- Ok, but did someone intentionally drop the ball on this play?
