2024 is the 80th Anniversary of our @AAGPBL champion #MilwaukeeChicks. Hey, @Brewers what will you be doing to celebrate?

Sadly looks like @BorchertField is retired, think he was the only one who pushed the team to get these events done.

The Milwaukee Chicks were 1944 Champions in the one and only year they played in the league.

LaFerne Price would have been 96 today. LaFerne was an 18-year-old when she joined the Milwaukee Chicks in 1944 as a pitcher, after graduating from Terre Haute Indiana's Wiley High School. She only played one season.

Baseball has started back up, and I just can’t resist the urge to try this ap again.

Things still toxic round here?

@CharlieZu @rikoruss31 @BridgetPhetasy He’s a trump cult member. Lack of empathy is a requirement.

@A1_Sah_him @BodegaTone @SheriAWilkinson Hope the NYC EMS system has more sense and decides to protect the patients he doesn’t care about.

@TheLoris2 @BTS_fiend @PeoplesCourt79 If they weren’t weak they wouldn’t feel the need to be bullies.

Half of you questioning Simone Biles’ “toughness” can’t even wear a mask for five minutes in Starbucks. Have a seat.

I love, love, love this tradition of marking all the Eutaw Street homers. One of the many reasons Camden Yards is so special.
