Set in the 1943, the show chronicles the formation of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League. Carson (Abbi Jacobson) is a catcher, much like Geena Davis’ Dottie, who tries out for the Rockford Peaches while her husband is fighting in the war. Glamorous Greta has shades of Madonna’s Mae, but in a major departure, she and Carson develop much more than the chemistry between teammates. The other major change in the series is a focus on a Black woman’s experience. The co-lead is Max (Chanté Adams), who is frustrated when excluded from tryouts because baseball isn’t integrated yet. She takes a factory job hoping to play for the men’s team, though she must juggle that with working at her mother’s hair salon.
