Women’s softball star Jennie Finch is seen holding wiffleball equipment on the cover of the July 11, 2005 issue of Sports Illustrated.

Finch is has been featured on the weekly television show “This Week in Baseball” where she pitches a softball to a different Major League Baseball hitter each week, and often strikes them out on three pitches.

Finch became well-known to most sports fans when she pitched the United States to a gold medal in softball at the 2004 Summer Olympic Games. Prior to that, she pitched the University of Arizona to a national championship.

If Jennie Finch is looking to add wiffleball to her resume, she can start right here with MLW. Although we’ve already broken the gender barrier, we’re always looking for talented players — male or female — to join the league. Celebrity status is also a major plus.
