Women belong on the field

Baseball is incredible. Alec Mills wasn’t recruited to the University of Tennessee at Martin. He walked by practice one day and told the coach he was good enough to pitch on the team. A tryout followed. 22nd round pick. Today, he threw a no-hitter for the @Cubs. @MLBNetwork@MLB
There are only 2 teams in baseball with a higher winning percentage than the Sox. This guarantees absolutely nothing. It is time however to view this ballclub as a contender to win the big prize now and for the foreseeable future. They’re young and talented and they’re your Team
Please bring him to the Cubs. Can you imagine a team with him and his lifelong friend @javy23baez on the same infield? Baez at 3B, Lindor at SS and Bryant in LF. Schwarber at DH. And Captain @ARizzo44 at 1B. OMG. @DOM_Frederic This would be incredible.
