Kylie is terrific and the exploration of what it would feel like to be the first woman in MLB is done very well. I appreciate this kind of TV that has heart and drama. And I like the depiction of how MLB works as a business.
Is it perfect? More so than 95% of network TV.
I think the show would have done better in the ratings as a spring or summer show, when baseball fans are in tune with a rookie being called up. Starting it in the World Series time frame is out of sync as the emphasis now is on the best of the best.
I very much hope Fox lets this one play out as a spring/summer show in 2017.
