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?
love the show, please don’t take it off the air.
I’m so disappointed that Pitch was cancelled! This show was amazing and could be watched by the whole family. We loved the characters, the story lines and how inspirational it was for women in sports.
I’m hoping it gets picked up by another network!
I think FOX screwed up!!! I can’t believe you would Shady (Sleepy) Hollow, but decide to cancel a show that you put no effort into promoting. You wanted this show to fail. It had everything that TV is missing WOC leads/discussion of mental instability/Female Friendship, ect…. I’m so pissed that FOX wouldn’t even try! I’m bombarding NetFlix and Hulu today hoping they will give this hidden gem another chance!!
I am very disappointed. I loved this show! It was fresh and different. Fox stinks for taking away the good shows.
I like to show love the show please don’t take it off the air please don’t cancel it
Love this show and don’t think it should be cancelled
Love the show!!!!
Pitch should come back for a second season, Mark-Paul Gosselaar is truly fun to watch!!
Pitch is a good show, shown in my hometown of San Diego. Just don’t hook Ginny up with any of her teammates.
Please bring back PITCH for another season!!
Pitch should come back for a second season. I am waiting to hear what happens. It is very important for young girls to see you can have a career in sports
Absolutely Pitch should have a second season! There are so many story lines they can go with on this show and our country loves anything baseball!!!
Truly an inspiring show, for all young athletes, but more so for young girls starting out in sports, seeing that they too can do anything that they inspire to do with hard work and dedication! Can’t wait for season 2!
My daughter and I love this show. It’s something we look forward to each week!
I adore this show. Finally a show about hard work and being smart. A role model for young women that shows all the ups and downs of becoming an adult. Please keep this show.
