The Women's Professional Baseball League (WPBL) debuts with a 30-game season across Boston, New York, San Francisco, and Los Angeles, all played at Robin Roberts Stadium in Springfield, Illinois. The league aims for longevity and hopes to become the 'MLB of women’s baseball'. It marks another significant moment in the history of women's professional baseball in the U.S., following the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League (AAGPBL) which ran from 1943-54. The WPBL was co-founded by Justine Siegal, who became the first woman to coach for an MLB team in 2015. The inaugural game is scheduled for Saturday, August 1, featuring Denae Benites and the New York Heights against Mo’ne Davis and the Los Angeles Queens.
