Sparking a nationwide debate, it asks the question, 'Can a woman compete in a man's sport at this level?' In a cross between Bull Durham and A League Of Their Own, follow this incredible young woman as she struggles to overcome politics, sexism and the athletic challenges of competing in a male dominated sport. The Ninth Man has it all - action, humor, romance, as well as a collection of great one liner's: "The term Baseball Player is not gender specific," "A woman's place is at home - home plate that is," and "Hasta La Baseball, Baby!" The Ninth Man is entertaining and uplifting, and presents a scenario that is sure to spark debate on whether a woman will someday cross the boundaries and make it to the major leagues. The Ninth Man - it's about more than baseball.EXTRA 10 % discount with code: EXTRA
