Pay close attention during the tryout scene in the first episode of Amazon Prime’s series “A League of Their Own.”

Two women, one wearing a plaid jacket and the other in a red sweater that contrasts with her puffy white hair, are sitting in the stands and applauding while a group of brave women show off their pitching, batting and fielding skills in hopes of winning spots in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League.

The two spectators are smiling, as if they know something you don’t. They look like people you should recognize but can’t quite place.

Who are they? Why are they there? Too quickly, the camera moves on.

The woman on the left is Shirley Burkovich, who spent three seasons in the AAGPBL and died in March at 89. Beside her in the red sweater is 95-year-old Maybelle Blair of Sunset Beach. She’s one of the few surviving players from the AAGPBL, which was launched in 1943 to keep baseball alive while many major leaguers were serving in World War II. By every definition, Blair always has been in a league of her own.

Generally I feel nothing and know nothing of contemporary baseball. However, nothing can compete with the bliss of seeing a fictional character in one of those funny, archaic-looking uniforms. Truly a strange and wonderful cultural object. "Baseball episode" is the best episode trope there is.

Feel free to add your own favorite examples of this. I love to see funny baseball.

One of the last things we saw of Kira in DS9 was her tossing Sisko's baseball. And it was very appropriate to see her doing that when we see her again for the first time in Lower Decks.

And over the years, people in the DS9 fandom have mused that baseballs took on religious significance to the Bajoran people because of Sisko. Personally, I don't think that would be the case. Bajorans may be very spiritual but they're not ignorant.

Instead, I'd like to think that the story of Sisko leaving his baseball in his office during the Dominion occupation as a promise that he would return spread across Bajor. And some Bajorans copied the replicator patterns for baseballs from DS9 and installed them on replicators on Bajor. And whenever a Bajoran wants to demonstrate their intent to return to some place they're leaving, they leave behind a baseball. So baseballs on Bajor have emotional but not religious significance.
