Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel: On the Basis of Sex: Girls’ Baseball (Full Segment) | HBO



We are in a golden age of women’s sports in the United States. In youth programs, high school, and college, there are teams for girls in virtually every sport, but baseball stands alone as the one sport (other than football) that we essentially tell girls they can’t play. #HBO #RealSports

Baseball as a boy’s only sport and the reason to make it only a boy’s sport is the definition of sexism. There’s girls wrestling and water polo, but not girl’s baseball?

In addition, to have the alternative of baseball be where females have to pitch underhand is another example outright sexism.

Yes, softball is one of the last vestiges of gender segregation in this country. BUT, what RS fails to explain is WHY softball survives. ITs not because of sexism. Its because its easier and rec level friendly. Baseball, and in particular, overhand pitching is very difficult.

Why couldn't they (Little League) have just started girls baseball teams? Why did it have to be softball? Seriously, I don't follow either sport and never played either one not even on a church league. Mostly don't care, but curious about this having stumbled upon it.

I consider this a classic Real Sports story!

It's kinda dumb that girls can't play baseball lol. Like whatever dude, just start up some leagues
@agoge08 May 20, 2024 - 10:24 pm
Makes no sense, why can't women play baseball?
@zerospacer May 20, 2024 - 10:24 pm
Girls: We can do anything! Don't you try to stereotype us!
Also girls: It's men's fault that we can't compete with men, don't form our own leagues, and don't support women's sports.
"Maybe one day America can catch up to Japan and have its own Women's League that is losing money, and then we can achieve equality by transferring the men's profits to the women." lol

If you’re still crying about not being able to play a game 50 years later, your life has gone horribly wrong.
@spycam56 May 20, 2024 - 10:24 pm
Competition IS ALWAYS about your heart!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@mikeoxlong5119 May 20, 2024 - 10:24 pm
I played this team and they were terrible and the umps tried to give them the game but we still won
@joeerwin8687 May 20, 2024 - 10:24 pm
Why cant the boys play fast pitch softball?
@ciscomontalvo3988 May 20, 2024 - 10:24 pm
Fastpitch softball is faster and more exciting in my opinion. In Baseball you can bobble, kick and drop the ball and still get the out at first base. Smh.
@esyrkus May 20, 2024 - 10:24 pm
that was my team that played them. we smacked them 10-0
@annestahlman9671 May 20, 2024 - 10:24 pm
My uncle and cousin are in the winning team. Go stingers!
@joshuakaiman5310 May 20, 2024 - 10:24 pm
We need to have a girl baseball team. I played softball. My late Grandmother played baseball with her grandchildren.
@EZloner3144 May 20, 2024 - 10:24 pm
I wish I could play girls volleyball not just to see the girls but just so I could bounce the ball on there low ass net
@mryari7159 May 20, 2024 - 10:24 pm
I played against these girls in the first game in Apoka,Florida
And we ended up in a tie
@shawnmichaelduncan5951 May 20, 2024 - 10:24 pm
If men can be airline stewardess then girls can play baseball. Plus didn't anyone besides me see League of their own.
@Iamrightyouarewrong May 20, 2024 - 10:24 pm
Fuck your sports.
@jwrangler12 May 20, 2024 - 10:24 pm
So sad you will find anything to cry about you people are pathetic
@JameBlack May 20, 2024 - 10:24 pm
From the European point of view Baseball is not even a sport. Is it like golf or cricket? Do they run?
@itsg1010 May 20, 2024 - 10:24 pm
So what if I want to play softball or girls volleyball
