Spoilers ahead
In 1988, Dottie Hinson reflects on her past while attending the grand opening of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League exhibit at the Baseball Hall of Fame. The sight of familiar faces and photographs sparks a vivid flashback to 1943.
As World War II looms over Major League Baseball (MLB), Chicago Cubs owner Walter Harvey convinces other team owners to fund a women’s league, appointing Ira Lowenstein as its leader. Talent scout Ernie Capadino watches Dottie, who plays an impressive catcher for a local dairy in Oregon, but she is content awaiting her husband Bob’s return from the war. However, her younger sister, Kit Keller, eager to prove herself, persuades Dottie to pursue the opportunity after Capadino brushes her aside.
