Katie and Bridget slide into each other and one of them drops the ball (on purpose - or not!?) as they re-watch the 90's classic: A League of Their Own! It's a story all about the very first women's professional baseball league in America and how lots of people were into it! But only if the women also knew how to powder their nose on third base...!? Come along as we meet a huge cast of awesome characters: Dottie, a married woman who's the best at baseball but is kinda meh about it; her younger sister Kit, "she's as single as they come" and always feels like she's in Dottie's shadow; Marla Hooch - what a hitter!; Mae, who isn't afraid to go all the way; Doris, who may or may not be the unsung hero of this movie; and Jimmy Dugan, who gives the real talk about avoiding the clap. Together, these women hit, pitch, slide, throw, and catch their way into our hearts, especially when they sing that god damn song... Released in 1992, it was directed by Penny Marshall and stars a cast of notable actors including Geena Davis, Lori Petty, Rosie O'Donnell, Madonna, and Tom Hanks!
