Descrizione
In her own words, Digger Wells, often called "a modern day Jackie Robinson," takes you on her novel journey through college softball and the iron gates of professional baseball. You'll join the first woman to crack the major leagues and learn the personal and professional skills she needed to cross the softball lines into the male-dominated land of baseball.
From out of a broken home, Miss Ohio Softball nets a full-ride scholarship to the University of Michigan before a serious knee injury takes her out of her first season. Dispirited, Digger drifts alone through America trying to find herself, playing softball and baseball from coast to coast in the endless struggle to realize her talent. With only faith in herself and God, she accepts the challenge of taking on major league baseball.
Travel with Digger as every trial is a challenge that shapes her for the ultimate test of major league baseball. Be with her through her challenges, successes, and adventures as she faces the men, the competition, and the resistance of being the first woman to come face-to-face with the major leagues.
