You won't be disappointed!

How sad is this?

Good movie but grossly overrated

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Just finished binge watching whole season and loved it!!!!! Engaged initially not expecting a "this could happen some day" story rather more of corny and predictable one. I am a female athlete, a baseball fan and, know a bit about dugout/clubhouse/road trips shenanigans and stories. I found the show to be fabulous and so very entertaining!! You don't have to be a true baseball fan to enjoy and be entertained but... if you love baseball you will appreciate so much more things like; retaliation from a pitcher hitting a batter and how it will all go down, behaviors around a possible no hitter in progress, missing lucky nasty t-shirt, etc. The struggles of being replaced due to injury and fighting to get your position back. The sometimes incomprehensible journey Latin players go through and how it defines the emotional shields they carry with them. I could go on.. The show also did a fantastic job taking very unpredictable turns on scenes like; Baker's first outing as a pitcher or as a hitter keeping the viewer (or at least me) with an OMG excitement-I didn't not see that coming. Bringing real life celebrities to play themselves (Kimmel, Smoltz, Buck) was a homerun! Key parts of the story were very Moneyball like portraying the ever going contrast in today's professional sports between management/business and the athlete's passion for the game/team. I could go on but too many spoilers already.. Sorry! Last and most important I enjoyed everyone of the main characters and their roles. Casting was perfect! Please find a way to bring season 2!!!

I loved this show! The plot was inspiring. I find baseball to be a boring sport to watch, but Pitch has made baseball exciting--I can't get enough of it. I disagree with everyone who says this is a show for "feminists." This show has something for everybody. The female lead, Kylie Bunbury, is an amazing actress and her character is incredibly layered, as well as the rest of the cast. As the series went on, the plot got better and better. The relationships develop well, and the chemistry between the leads is electric. They have each other's backs on the field and off, and the pace at which the show reveals story details keeps you engaged. Season two is something to look forward to! All in all, I highly recommend this show.

Some of the reviews are not taking into account that this is a television show, for entertainment. It is not an historical documentary, recounting the journey of the first woman to play in MLB. For what it is, a sports-based drama, it is a good show. They managed to give depth to all of the main characters (mostly through flashbacks), which helps to actually make some of their more unlikeable moments somewhat understandable. In my opinion, Kylie Bunbury is a great leading lady for this show. I think that MPG does a great job being a surly veteran. I'm not totally fond of Ali Larter's character, but it seems to be more a matter of the way the character was written. I don't see the show as trying to "capitalize on sexism," or fulfilling some sort of "feminist agenda." Inherently, if you have a show about the first modern woman to play a man's sport professionally, there will be some tone of feminism to that story. If all sense of female empowerment was removed, this would naturally be a boring, unrealistic and lazy narrative. Keeping that in mind, the writers have crafted a very believable, relatable story.

I haven't even seen this show but I refuse to watch it. I've played sports my entire life and based off the previews that I've seen I can tell that the main actress has never thrown a baseball before in her entire life. And why are her pants so high?? Seriously, why would you hire an actress to be a MLB pitcher if she shows no athletic ability whatsoever! I'm sure there are plenty of actresses that could fill this role that have actually played baseball....it's absolutely ridiculous, especially because the rest of the cast looks amazing. I mean even Mark Paul Gosseler grew out a beard for the show! It's just so disappointing because the show looks promising...
