It's Bound to occur. Already there are women boxers, women jockeys and women race-car drivers. So it's only a matter of time before the first all-girl baseball team hits the dugouts. Once it does happen, there's a good chance baseball cards will take on a whole new dimension--along with RBIs and ERAs, you'll have CWHs (chest, waist, hips). Get the picture?

Baseball seems made for the female of the species--the uniforms are cute, the game is played on a diamond and what normal American girl doesn't feel right at home with her hands wrapped around a nice smooth bat? The terms pitcher's mound and batter's box fit in nicely, too. Women will most likely alter the standard baseball garb somewhat, though--the Boston Red Sox will become the Boston Leotards--and from that point, it's only a line drive to such clubs as the Pittsburgh Privates and the Baltimore Beavers. Talk about spectator sports!
