Justine Siegal
Baseball for all founder
Justine Siegal dreamed of playing for her hometown Cleveland Indians while growing up. Though she faced constant adversity on the diamond she persevered, first as a player, then as a pioneering coach, and later as the founder of Baseball For All which provides an opportunity for all girls to play the game. As Justine says, “When you tell a girl she can’t play baseball, what else does she believe she can’t do? For me this is a social justice issue of a girl being told what she can’t do because of her gender. I’m going to help make that change any way I can." And she is.
