Pitch

Ginny Baker (Kylie Bunbury) is the first female MLB player and the new pitcher for the San Diego Padres. Mike Lawson (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) is the veteran catcher on the last leg of his celebrated career. Oscar Arguella (Mark Consuelos) is the GM. Outfielder Blip Sanders (Mo McRae) and his wife Evelyn (Meagan Holder) are Ginny's friends. Al Luongo (Dan Lauria) is the gruff, old-fashion manager. Ginny's father is dead and her brother is desperate to cash in on her fame. Amelia Slater (Ali Larter) quits her job to be solely her manager with assistant Eliot (Tim Jo).

This could have been a bad gimmicky TV show. The use of real MLB teams helps a lot but it's Bunbury that makes this show works. She has great sincerity and terrific charms. Gosselaar is now a veteran of TV acting and uses it to deliver a veteran performance. This is a solid show although it only lasted one season with ten episodes.
