Baseball For All's Founder and Executive Director, Justine Siegal knows that dreams can come true. At 13, her coach told her that he didn't want her on his team and that girls shouldn't play baseball. With great determination and a love for the game, Siegal continued playing baseball through high school, men's summer leagues, and women's International play. In 2011, she made baseball history when she became the first woman to throw batting practice to MLB teams (Indians, A’s, Rays, cardinals, Astros, and Mets). Justine is also the first female base coach in men's professional baseball (Brockton Rox, 2009).
