Jimmy Dugan on Adversity


As moving as "A League of Their Own" (1992)  is on the silver screen, it is a somewhat fantastic depiction of the All-American Girls Baseball League.  All of the characters in the film were fictional.  Moreover, the Rockville Peaches did not play for the 1943 championship as it was a series between the Racine Bells and the Kenosha Comets.  

Still, these sticky wicket of fact do not detract from the greater truths portrayed in the movie.
