It’s fine not to like the new “A League of Their Own” series, says the cast. But only if it’s for the right reasons.
The cast of the Prime Video show, which premiered Friday, knows how many people already have nasty ideas about the women baseball players who made up the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League during World War II. It comes with the territory: women in a role typically held by men. The actors just want you to actually watch their series first.
“Probably the only people who are going to stay mad are the people who would write online about an all-female ‘Ghostbusters’ and how Ghostbusters can only be men,” Molly Ephraim, who plays Rockford Peaches center fielder Maybelle, told the Daily News.
