Professional women's sports are having a banner year in 2024. The new pro women's hockey league welcomed record-breaking numbers in January; the WNBA has produced bona fide basketball stars like Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese; and now, just last month, news broke that a Women's Pro Baseball League will launch in 2026—and it's being spearheaded by two Jewish industry vets. One is Justine Siegal, who has racked up a Wikipedia page full of "firsts", most prominently as the first female coach hired by an MLB team. She's also coached Israel's national baseball team and founded Baseball For All, an organization that provides opportunities for girls to get involved playing baseball. Her co-founder of the WPBL is Keith Stein, the Canadian owner of the Toronto Maple Leafs baseball club, which plays in Christie Pits. But how exactly does one start a new league from scratch? How will they find the players—and inspire young girls to take up baseball instead of softball? Justine Siegal joins the Menschwarmers for a candid conversation about her goals and challenges in starting the WPBL and shares a bit about what her life was like growing up as a Jewish girl—often mistaken for a boy. And before that interview, the hosts chat about the soccer riots that erupted in Amsterdam last week. Was it a pogrom, simple soccer hooliganism, or something in between?

Patti and Pottymouth had the great joy of sitting down with Jean Fruth and Jeff Idelson, who are bringing their new film “See Her, Be Her,” to MLB Network between games two and three of this year's World Series. “See Her, Be Her” profiles seven women baseball players in seven different parts of the world, and demonstrates the skill, perseverance, passion, and all-around badassery required to play the game they love. Jean and Jeff tell us about selecting the countries, the athletes, the stories to tell, and why film is the way to do it. We talk about “all these little channels of goodness happening” from Baseball for All to DC Girls Baseball, to Kelsie and Olivia, and being the first ones, to one day getting it all together to create a pipeline for girls and women to play at the highest levels. And how just maybe this film moves that process a little farther down the road. Follow up your listen with a visit to seeherbeher.com to watch the trailer and pre-order the companion book with Jean's photos and essays by the players from the film and some others you may know.

Ashley Kelly is the real hero of the Shohei Ohtani deal but we break it down anyway because it lets Patti do math and reference the Disney Prince, Betts, Freeman, and Yamamoto, but not the dog. Pottymouth leans into the CWS history with Cuban player and selects Oscar Colás Leon, while Patti picks brand new teammate and exceptional dad, veteran catcher Max Stassi. Our STL bfs include  Pottymouth's choice of Masyn Blaze Winn for all the mom reasons, and Patti goes for her second Nolan of the season, Nolan Gorman. Justine Siegal takes Baseball for All on the road, with tournaments in Costa Rica, Hawaii, and the Leighton Accardo Invitational with the Arizona Peaches.  We encourage you to support her great work providing opportunities for  girls to play baseball. Catch up on the LVBP Pepsi Jonrón Derby where you'll see lots of familiar bats. Our Police Blotter visits the LA County DA's office, and touches on the Tampa Bay Hostages.

This Thanksgiving weekend Patti and the Pottymouth cross-trained with hockey, Led Zeppelin, assembling IKEA furniture, beer farms, and unsuccessful mousing. MLB players, however, leaned into the giving with Andrew Vaughn working with Digs for DIgnity to assist a family emerging from homelessness, Hunter Greene outfitting hundreds of kids with brand new cleats, and Pablo López supporting pet rescue through pickleball. Playoff teams voted on how to divide their percentage of the postseason gate, sharing “life-changing money” with support staff who helped them get there. Hall of Fame balloting was announced and former NCiB boyfriends are starting to make the list. Winter ball in the DR is featuring familiar faces including Tatis, Jr., Ramirez, Profar, and Aquaman. Baseball United has kicked off in Dubai with appearances by Big Sexy, cricket players, Justine Siegal, and a 6-run HR. We don't think “moneyball” means what you think it means. Pottymouth wants you to play LVBP fantasy with her. An NBA family reminds us that players are more than pawns in the game.

On this week's episode of SABRcast Rob Neyer is joined by the founder of "Baseball for All" Justine Siegal. Along with tracing back her love of the game, Rob and Justine discuss roadblocks and wins along her path in baseball and exciting opportunities in the works to help more girls find a place to play the game they love. Rob wraps the show by discussing his winner of the weekend and what he's been reading. For show notes, extra content, and a list of what Rob's reading, visit the SABRcast website at https://sabr.org/sabrcast.

Blake Murphy opens the show with a quick recap of the Toronto Blue Jays' weekend series ‘dub' in Cincinnati. The Athletic's Kaitlyn McGrath then shares some insight into the team's promising start to their road trip and the significance of Bo Bichette's return, before contemplating whether there's a comprehensive narrative behind Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s seemingly problematic middle finger. Shortly thereafter, Mike Petriello of MLB.com takes us through his latest piece exploring 11 theories on Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s season, and delves into the downturn of the Yankees juxtaposed with the ascent of the Dodgers (28:46). On the back nine of the program, Blake opens up the JTP Mailbag to answer your questions (51:33)! We wrap up with Dr. Justine Siegal, the visionary behind "Baseball For All", an organization dedicated to promoting girls' participation in baseball. Together, they delve into Dr. Siegal's personal odyssey within the sport, the strides women are making across different tiers within Major League Baseball, and her contributions as a baseball coordinator within the realms of film and television (01:15:41). The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

Ellen E Jones and Mark Kermode explore sport on screen, from Field of Dreams to Ted Lasso. Ellen looks at the life lessons to be gleaned from baseball movies such as Field of Dreams, The Natural and A League of Their Own, with the help of film critic Simon Brew and the first woman to coach men's baseball in the US - trailblazer Justine Siegal. And Mark focuses on football in film and TV, speaking to Ted Lasso co-creator and star Brendan Hunt about the inspirations for the sitcom about an American football manager hired to manage a fictional Premier League team. He also talks to critic and programmer Ashley Clark about his favourite screen depictions of the beautiful game, from Escape to Victory to Sunderland 'Til I Die. Pioneering BBC Sport broadcaster and journalist Eleanor Oldroyd shares her Viewing Notes. Producer: Jane Long A Prospect Street production for BBC Radio 4

We agree with Fernando Tatis, Jr. when he says, “who doesn't love Ha-Seong Kim?” Max Muncy flexes his dad power. Pottymouth's weekly Kiké mention is really about the ceremonial first pitch of his model cousin Sofía Jirau. Last Friday's Hammers vs Os game, with Max Fried vs. Dean Kremer, was the 5th time in MLB history with two Jewish starting pitchers. The High A Hillsboro Hops (with manager Ronnie Gajownik) vs. Vancouver Canadians (Ashley Stephenson position coach) series brought us women in uniform on both sides of the field. Our Police Blotter features a conversation of when is a flub really a flub as we discuss the suspension of Glen Kuiper, As broadcaster, for his on-air racial slur. We highlight the international asshattery of Trevor Bauer, and the multiple plunkings of Arozarena. Bryce Harper and Jose Altuve come back quickly, and Liam Hendriks shines in a rehab start. Justine Siegal piles on the impressive firsts by adding “first woman to coach in LMB.” Our pre-season predictions predictably stink.We say, “It's perfectly acceptable for Arozarena to do his pose at third WHEN HE HITS A TRIPLE,” “Dad to dad baton thing,” and “I bet *he* can rollerblade and not pull anything.” Get boosted, fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

With Mike sidelined this week, please enjoy this classic episode of TWIB History. From its founding in 1939 through 1973, Little League Baseball refused to let girls play, and was deeply and intransigently committed to that position until a New Jersey court decision forced them to relent only 46 years ago this week. Mike and Bill look back on the history of women and girls playing baseball prior to that decision and the suit that forced Little League Baseball to welcome girls. They are also joined by Dr. Justine Siegal (@justinebaseball) of Baseball For All to discuss her journey as a player, coach, and advocate for girls to have access to the game. Plus, happy birthday to Dwight Evans and Edgardo Alfonzo.

Ms. Justine Siegal, the founder of Baseball for all, speaks about creating a role for women and girls in baseball. She shares her experiences with individuals such as Mike Veeck, Joe Maddon, and Billy Beane.“When she was 13, Justine’s coach told her that girls were only supposed to play softball—not baseball. At that moment, she vowed she’d never quit. At 16, despite being ridiculed, laughed at, and told no man would ever listen to a woman on the baseball field, she worked toward her goal of becoming a college baseball coach.To give her an edge in an otherwise male-dominated profession, Justine earned her PhD in Sports Psychology while working as an Assistant Baseball Coach for Springfield College. She went on to be the first woman to coach for a professional men’s baseball team (Brockton Rox, 2009), the first woman to throw batting practice to a Major League Baseball team during Spring Training (Cleveland Indians, 2011)—and the first woman to ever coach for a MLB organization (Oakland Athletics, 2015).

We've been to a ballpark and you can hear it in our voices. Joe Musgrove finally earns the Padres their first no-hitter, and we learn he, like us, enjoys a nice IPA but also a disturbing amount of chewing gum. Pottymouth appreciates Kiké’s hip swivel, Patti cheers Ian Happ’s blackout rant and it turns out some of our boyfriends are criminals, but not in a bad way.

Jake is joined by pioneer and baseball coach Justine Siegal to discuss breaking barriers as the first woman to coach for a major league organization, working on the 'League of Their Own' TV series, and having her jersey in the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown.

The first woman to coach for a Major League Baseball organization coaching for the A’s fall instructional league in 2015 and the first woman to throw batting practice for an MLB organization in 2011 when she threw for Cleveland and the founder of Baseball For All, Justine Siegal discusses her journey in baseball and how the sport has shaped her entire life.

Before both Jen Welter and Justine Siegal were hired as coaches for the Arizona Cardinals (NFL) & Oakland A's (MLB) respectively in 2015, there had been a grand total of zero female coaches in either league. While they had to endure tough times - from being spat on and tackled, to dealing with verbal abuse - they not only persevered to achieve their own dreams, but paved the way for those who followed too: 4 women were part of the Tampa Bay staff that won Super Bowl LV in 2021, and major market teams like the New York Yankees, Chicago Cubs and Boston Red Sox now boast females as part of their coaching team. In this Women's History Month special, we talk about their journeys from outsiders to part of the game, the mental strengths you must have as an outsider or minority, as well as what they learned along the way about how to forge a path when one doesn't exist yet.

Justine Siegal shares a story that everyone will find a true inspiration. Noted for her success in coaching baseball in contexts that were previously male-only, Justine has done much more than that. She shares her fascinating journey with Alyssa Barbieri and John Buffone.

Women coaching and working in men’s baseball has increased lately. Just this season the San Francisco Giants hired, Alyssa Nakken, the first woman to coach full-time in Major League Baseball while Dr. Justine Siegal @justinebaseball has contributed to the Oakland A’s in varying on-field roles. In that company, Jessica Neitz, an American holds the distinction in […]

I am honoured to be joined by Justine Siegal in this episode. Justine was the first woman ever to coach professional baseball. Her experiences in the pro leagues motivated her to change the landscape of gender inequality in baseball. She has a PhD in Sport Psychology and is founder of Baseball For All, which is a national non-profit organisation empowering girls to coach, play and lead. We speak about Justine's experiences growing up playing a very male dominated sport and how they shaped her to become the coach she is today.

Justine Siegal became the first woman to coach a professional men’s baseball team in 2009, the Brockton Rox of the Canadian American Association of Professional Baseball. 2 years later, she became the first woman to throw batting practice for an MLB team during spring training. Since then, she has thrown BP to the Oakland A’s, the Tampa Bay Rays, St. Louis Cardinals, Houston Astros, and the New York Mets. In this episode, we talk about how she got those opportunities, spoiler alert, it took a lot of no’s before she got a yes...we also talk about what it was like being the only female on a coaching staff, her vision for the future of women in coaching pro sports, and her nonprofit to promote equality in baseball, called “Baseball for All". She also has a PhD in Sports Psychology.

Justine Siegal jons Ross Tucker and Dave Briggs to talk about the rising trend of female coaches in professional sports and share the unique impact they have on some of your favorite athletes. Siegal was the first female coach ever hired to a professional men's baseball team back in 2009.

In the second hour of the show, Ross Tucker and Dave Briggs talk with WIP Program Director Spike Eskin to get his take on the latest riff between 76ers center Joel Embiid and the Philly faithful! They then check in with coaching trailblazer Justine Siegal to talk about the impact female coaches have on pro sports as teams continue to hire more and more female coaches to their staffs. They close the show talking wit Fantasy Football Legend Daniel Hixon, who's viral championship engagement photos have taken over the internet. They then give out the 'Best Fan' awards as they continue their Home and Home Awards.

They are also joined by Dr. Justine Siegal (@justinebaseball) of Baseball For All to discuss her journey as a player, coach, and advocate for girls to have access to the game.

With great determination and a love for the game, Siegal continued playing baseball through high school, men's summer leagues, and women's International play. In 2011, she made baseball history when she became the first woman to throw batting practice to MLB teams (Indians, A's, Rays, cardinals, Astros, and Mets). Justine is also the first female base coach in men's professional baseball (Brockton Rox, 2009).
