While Jackie Robinson's achievements as the first African American major league baseball player are well documented, very few people know about Ila Borders - the first female pitcher in integrated men's professional baseball and the first woman to win a men's professional game in the independent leagues. Nor do they know about the 17 girls that have played in the 68-year history of the Little League World Series. But thanks to 13-year-old pitching phenom Mo'ne Davis, that has all changed.

    I am a girl and I love baseball so much and everyone says I am so good, not trying to brag, sorry. I am the only girl on my team and I love all sports so much, I also pitch and catch.

      I played baseball when I was 8 and 9 and all I hit was DINGERS to 3rd and home base I have videos of me doing it I'm not trying to brag because baseball is hard trust me I was the 2nd best on the team it was fun playing it I suggest if your gonna play sports to play base you'll get better and better like the first time I started i could not hit one single ball but 2 months later I was hitting home runs the first I made was down but it bounced over his head and I got to 2nd base I was happy I would always strike out my coach would just tell me to hustle. The first home run I hit was out of the park we won the championship by the way I played for the Angels then I quit because I got hurt I was catcher and he was coming in hot my pitcher threw to me and he slid he was out but he popped my ankle out so I quit that was the end of my baseball career.
