Trivia: The Rockford Peaches and Racine Belles were women’s teams in what sport?
Baseball
Football
Field Hockey
Basketball
The correct answer is Baseball
So why is this answer correct? : In 1943, during the height of World War II, many men were sent to fight overseas, leaving the country’s baseball teams with limited players. To keep the pastime going, the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League was established. For the next 10 years, women played professional baseball across the Midwest, a story which was depicted in the 1992 movie “A League of Their Own.”
