A Chattanooga Lookout The Lookouts got their first shot at fame; A New York Yankees Exhibition game. They signed Jackie Mitchell, a publicity stunt, but she pitched like a pro, not some sorry runt. The starter gave up a hit and a double. They sent Jackie in to heal this trouble. She struck out Babe Ruth, third up to bat. She stuck out Lou Gehrig, imagine that. Lazzeri, she walked; put a third man on base. The manager pulled her just to save face. The commissioner said that she had to go. Should women play baseball?
