    Summary

    Baker shrugged. “I know how it is. You have to pick a side. I’m Team Lawson.”

    “You’re just sucking up to get into my good braces and my back rubs with Kiki.”

    “Yes, and I need you to steal me some morphine and a blood bag. A transfusion might get things moving along,” she said. “Or it will make them want me to leave.”

    “MLB insurance is really good. You could smuggle an opium den in here and live out your life,” Mike said. “Do you need the nurse for pain?”

     

    Spoilers for all of season 1. Missing scene for Ginny's hospital stay, because she's getting visitors, she just might not want the ones she gets.

    Summary

    “It was a nothing burger,” he said, aware his voice didn’t sound confident.

    “It was bloody rare and I’m still trying to get the taste out.”

    He flinched as she waved her arms, too wide in the space. She had a million dollars invested in her pitching hand. But he was getting sick of no one seeing his side of it. He was allowed to feel slighted.

    “There was no taste,” he said bitterly. “You didn’t have to eat your dismissal. There’s no loyalty when they break my contract and ask permission to give me away!”

    AU for 1x10 before the game, because what kind of sociopath would think they didn't need to talk?

    Summary

    “Is this gonna wash out?”

    “Mmm, not sure. I figure you could just shave it off if it doesn’t, right? Or wait a few months and spend Christmas with a white beard - for the kids.”

    He knew she was joking from the way she didn’t even bother to look at the container. She wouldn’t assassinate his beard. But he still squirmed in the chair.

    “Okay, that’s how you get a pink ear,” Baker said sternly. “And I’ll do the other ear blue.”

    Summary

    “Everyone talks about your hands; they say on all the shows that you’ve got good hand and that’s you’re solid behind the plate. But I’m stuck on your eyes- you see everything, you learn from your mistakes and you always protect your pitcher. That’s what I think of you.”

    Summary

    "Hey, did anybody bother to tell the Dodgers this is an elimination game?"

    Ginny popped another piece of popcorn in her mouth as Mike came around the corner, chuckling. "She says as she watches from the couch," he shot back. She waited until he sat down next to her to throw a kernel at him. Her aim was as good as it ever was, nailing him in the middle of his forehead. "Real mature," he said as he hunted for the kernel amongst the blanket.

    "Should have thought of that before you made me your controversially young wife."

    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

    When Ginny Baker is 17, she gets invited to an MLB-run training camp for high school ballplayers. While there, she meets none other than her favorite player and longtime crush, Mike Lawson.

    Mike Lawson, recovering from an injury, helps coach at the annual high school camp, and is blown away by a young pitcher he meets. He becomes a sort of mentor, offering her advice as she attempts to make it to the show.

    Or, what if Mike was able to help Ginny as she came up through the minors? if she had someone offering her the support and experience needed to make her hard road just a touch easier?

    Summary

    Ginny didn’t think of high school particularly fondly. She had missed out on (or chose to give up, she thought in her more charitable moments) many of the milestones that marked those years for most people. So she was understandably shocked when she got an email from Amelia with a video attached.

    A high school friend of yours reached out, the email said. She swears she has no intention of posting it online but found it going through an old computer and thought you might want it.

    “What friend?” Ginny mumbled out loud before pressing play.

    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.

    Summary

    “I’d send your no dating players rule straight to hell,” Mike said quietly. “I won’t be one for a whole lot longer, but it’ll feel like an eternity if they find us out. And I’ve never dated a ball player myself, even if I didn’t make a rule against it.”

    Her eyes closed with a pained grimace. Ginny knew she’d be getting the worst of the media scrutiny even if she lived as a nun who happened to play baseball.

    “You’re not wrong,” she said in a whisper. “Except this doesn’t feel like playing, does it?”

    Spoilers for all episodes, except for the finale.

    Summary

    "Somehow the Mets had a dildo in one of their lockers yet you’re still trending on Twitter,” Evelyn says as she shuts her laptop.

    “Great,” Ginny mumbles as the bartender does a doubletake at his boss when he picks up on that last sentence. She hasn’t been in a restaurant in such a long time that the emptiness of the place before opening feels more welcoming than anything has in a long time.

    “The San Diego media isn’t the same as the New York media. It’ll blow over soon enough,” she says as she pulls out her phone. “Any run ins with Mike?”
