        @BeschlossDC Dodgers trained in Havana that spring to avoid segregation in Florida.

        @tomhawthorn @BeschlossDC All American Girls Baseball League also trained in Cuba that year and apparently drew larger crowds than Dodgers.

        @tomhawthorn My secret dream is to produce a radio doc about the remaining players. Amazing women and their numbers are dwindling.

        @rodmickleburgh @tomhawthorn Sadly, that's usually the way I tell their stories - through obits. I'm on it. Thanks for the push.
