TV show description:
This dramatic series follows the inspirational story of a young pitcher who becomes the first woman to play Major League Baseball.
A beautiful, tough and gifted athlete, Ginny Baker (Kylie Bunbury) is vaulted into instant fame when she’s called up by the San Diego Padres to make her Major League debut. Like any rookie, Ginny must prove herself to her teammates.
Foremost among them is Mike Lawson (Mark-Paul Gosselaar), the team’s ruggedly handsome star catcher. There’s instant chemistry between them, although neither dares to admit it. After all, Mike is captain of the team and a few of his players don’t even want Ginny on the field. One of the players watching Ginny’s back is center fielder Blip Sanders (Mo McRae), an old friend from the minor leagues.
Guiding Ginny is her agent and confidante, Amelia Slater (Ali Larter). Amelia saw Ginny’s star potential early on and left her previous job as a Hollywood publicist to concentrate on the young phenom.
Although she’s been groomed for this moment by her demanding father, Bill Baker (Michael Beach), the end of Ginny’s improbable journey is the beginning of an almost impossible one. She’s representing her gender as she embarks on a successful baseball career under the glare of the white-hot media spotlight.
Episode #10 — Don’t Say It
Ross warns the Padres that Ginny is dangerously close to her pitching limit, but management is reluctant to end her season. Meanwhile, Amelia confronts Will about money that has gone missing from the restaurant fund.
First aired: December 8, 2016
What do you think? Do you like the Pitch TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for another season?
Please keep the show. I am a big baseball fan and enjoy it
The show is fabulous!!!! I’m hooked, I would b truly disappointed if it was canceled!
I like the show. Perhaps a different time
Slot or a different day would help ratings
Thursday night is a tough night
I haven’t watched it and won’t give it a chance – I’m just not interested in fantasy baseball!
This is a great show! It’s nice to have a plot that is different than any other show out there.
Needs to go. It’s just not good.
This is a great show…it just hasn’t had enough time to click…well done, well acted…good story….keep it!
Keep it on. Give it time to find its audience. Great baseball background into the business, trades, etc. Not juse a girl playing baseball story.
I love the show I have my girls watching it it’s amazing it gives my girls hope
Don’t like it. Find it stupid.
Best pilot episode I’ve seen since orphan black season 1. Loved it.
Love It! I was a female hockey player in Buffalo most of my life and delt with a lot of naysayers until I proved I could play. I can relate to the show and also think the acting is great. I Really hope they renew if for a second season already
Just saw it on Fox Now app. Too soon to tell, but I liked the first episode. Last five minutes was a shocker!
I think it’s probably too early to tell. But it’s on against Chicago Med, I like that show better.
I did not like the show. If it is not renewed how cares.
