“THERE’S NO CRYING IN BASEBALL!!” – or is there? In honor of what should be the very beginning of the baseball season, we talk about one of the greatest sports films of all time, “A League of Their Own”. Penny Marshall’s masterpiece is a perfect blend of sentimentality, action, and a sense of seeing something new. Take a trip back to the AAGPBL and look out for Cole’s emotional baseball monologue, Jedd’s revelation about Little League, and why Bitty Schram is the reason Tom Hanks gets credit!
