A STRIKING PENNSYLVANIA PITCHER!

   You may not know it but this is a very

historic day in Major League Baseball History!

On this day in 1898 Lizzy Arlington became

the first woman to pitch for a professional Men's

Baseball team! And it happened right here in

Pennsylvania! Lizzy pitched for the Reading

Coal Heavers. She pitched all 9 innings against

the Allentown Penuts! Lizzy gave up two hits

and only one walk in her 5 to 0 win! I know a

couple Major League teams that could use

Lizzy right about now! Maybe they should be

looking to the female players!!! Hope you're

well and that all your NEWS is good!
