It's quite the story.

Don't expect her to be dominant, or even necessarily good at this stage. But, apparently, male pitchers don't fare much better than her against pro ball players at the age she is now.

Amazing that she's received very little coaching in her lifetime. A couple of years of good coaching and some more experience could improve her skills a great deal.

Calgary Herald article from Wednesday's paper.
