Yoshida is a 16-year-old schoolgirl with a mean knuckleball has been selected in a draft for the new Kansai Independent Baseball League, making her the first woman ever to play together with the men in Japanese professional baseball.

 

Eri Yoshida was drafted for a new independent league that will launch in April, drawing attention for a side-armed knuckler that her future manager Yoshihiro Nakata said was a marvel.

 

The Red Sox, Yankees, and Tigers apparently all have interest in her. Should be fun to see how she does.

Call me sexist, but it will be a sad, sad day when a woman plays major league baseball.

Are you serious? That's just sad in itself.
