Summary
“Come on Mike, you know how it is – first potential female MLB players, getting a lot of hype in the Minors the last few seasons, it figures that a veteran of the game like yourself would have some thoughts.”
“Funnily enough Henry, I don’t spend too much time thinking about rookie players that haven’t even taken the diamond at Spring Training yet,” he said, going for dismissive rather than outright asshole. “If Ginny Baker makes it past the number of hurdles the industry, the media and the world put in her way, then she should absolutely be given the right to play in the MLB. When I take that diamond, I’m not thinking about anything other than the strengths and weaknesses of the players in front of me. I’ll play against anyone that has the skills to be there – outside of that, I’ve got no opinion on Baker.”

Summary
Ginny's season ends, but not because of a stupid fielding injury. In the aftermath, relationships - platonic and otherwise - will be tested, strengthened, and burned to the ground. Picks up about mid-way through 1x10. Canon compliant-ish up to that point with the exception of Will and Amelia, Tommy and Robles. In this universe, Will blamed Amelia "having it out for [him]" on her being worried that he would replace her again. So the two of them have both continued lying to Ginny about the June incident. Also, Tommy didn't get traded, because I love his relationship with Ginny, and I want to keep him. So someone else was traded for Robles (any of the many ballplayers whose names and faces we never saw or cared about).
I should probably rate this M for gratuitous usage of f-bombs, but I'm not going to, because I'm a horrible person who doesn't believe we should be clutching our pearls every time someone says f*ck, especially not in the year 2020. And honestly, teenagers who have to be teenagers this year deserve the freedom of saying f*ck whenever the hell they want. So... you've been warned.
