Bless them for their efforts as professional ballplayers, but really, exactly none of these women were allies beyond the color of their skin.
Pinkwashing and revisionism has served the league well in more recent times. It doesn't change facts.
Everyone makes their own legacy. Some people are built a whole lot more brave than others. Bless 'em all.

I found some #baseball peeps… wonder if there are any #ClevelandGuardians out there?
I made a first baseman named after my Dad and brought him up on #MLBTheShow to take Tito to the World Series. Took me a season and a half.
Now I’m playing as a two way pitcher named Ricky Vaughn.
Look I am this nerd. I just wish I could play an #AAGPBL version. #ALeaugeOfTheirOwn
