"Out of Left Field" by Ellen Klages follows the journey of a young girl named Mira who discovers her passion for baseball in 1957 San Francisco. As she navigates societal expectations and her own aspirations, Mira finds a connection with the game that transcends gender norms. With the support of her friends and the challenges of a male-dominated sport, she fights against prejudice and strives to claim her place in the baseball world. The story beautifully showcases themes of friendship, identity, and the courage to challenge societal boundaries, while exploring the impact of the women's rights movement on a young girl’s ambitions.
