Summary
She rolls herself over laboriously in her hotel bed, the last night she’ll ever spend in it, and sees her packed suitcase. One summer is what she’s gotten for her efforts. All that hardship: one good summer. The best month and a half she’s ever had, and now it’s raining outside and the cold’s been creeping up on Springfield, Illinois for weeks and Jill’s going back home. There’s nothing left for her here.
Jill Albayati on the end of the season.

Summary
Michelle has this dream where she’s playing baseball with her sister. She must be younger in it; she hasn’t played with her sister in years, but she never questions it. They play somewhere that looks like Robert Burnaby Park in early September but feels like her backyard, and her sister urges her to pitch. Every time, the order she chooses is different: curveball, slider, fastball, another curveball, a changeup when she thinks her sister will least expect it. And every time there is no noise but ball in glove, rhythmic like a metronome.
She’ll pitch and pitch and pitch until she realizes that it’s getting dark. The wind will pick up through the leaves, carry them tumbling across the field, and she will notice that the sound has changed. And after this realization always comes another, never any less horrible no matter how many times she dreams it: her sister has left her. She is pitching to nobody at all.
Michelle Roche knows what it's like to want.

of adults and children

which was cheating.

Summary
It’s around game six when Keira realizes it’s easier not to eat.
She knows better than to be skipping meals. As an athlete, it’s oftentimes harder to meet her caloric minimum than not. The math she’s doing to make sure she has enough protein to sustain her muscle mass is purgatorial and never-ending. She doesn’t get cheat days. But she’s exhausted and running late and the idea of cooking something and then having to clean her dishes after makes her want to put her head through the wall of her beautiful Springfield hotel suite. So she lays in bed an extra ten minutes, a new low for her, and then snags a protein shake on her way out the door to practice. She’ll make up the deficit later.
Keira Izumi has it all under control.

Summary
“Beachless beach date, I like it,” Jam says. Britt laughs. Nobody else joins her.
“What?” she says defensively as they all look her way in sync.
“I didn’t think the beachless beach thing was that funny, but I appreciate it,” Jam says. She runs a hand through her hair, shakes it back into place. It throws the definition of her bicep into relief beneath her t-shirt.
“No, sorry, the beach date part,” Britt says, draping the dish towel over her nub and reaching her hand out for the pot Michelle is rinsing. Instead, Michiro freezes in place.
Fellas, is it gay to be the fourth wheel to your catcher and pitcher and catcher who's a pitcher?

Summary
She’s been scrutinized before. It never made her feel understood. People knew her name without ever knowing who she was; now they look at her and all they see is that little girl’s face from the magazine cover. Little League legend is a good thing to be when you’re thirteen. But Mo’ne isn’t thirteen anymore.
Meggie looked at Maggie and understood her—easily, entirely, and without judgment. Mo’ne wants that. She wants it so bad it feels like there’s no room in her body for anything else. But she can’t figure out how to bridge the gap between wanting and having.
“Mo,” Ashton says, poking Mo’ne with her pool cue. “Still you?”
Of course I’m still me, she wants to say. Who else would I be?
“Yes,” she says, too robotically. “Still me.”

nothing knows me like this hunger by zacoyama (stardustandswimmingpools)

Summary
“I’m sorry, this is crazy,” Jam says. “I get religious observance, but there are exceptions for a reason. Like…you don’t just not eat and drink when you have practice and a game tomorrow. And it’s this hot. I honestly don’t think Maggie is that stupid.”
Michelle clenches her jaw. She wants to be angry, and a part of her is. The fear that gripped her left bruises when it let go. In a simple world, Jam is right, because only an idiot—a selfish, naive idiot—would try to fast on a day like this. But Maggie’s not an idiot. They’ve been friends long enough for Michelle to know that for certain.
They've also been friends long enough for Michelle to know other things. Like Maggie’s adherence to religious rituals. And her devotion to baseball, to her team. And how she tends to conflate those things in ways Michelle doesn’t always agree with.
(Or: Yom Kippur conflicts with practice, and Maggie makes a choice.)

Summary
Denae has her cleats kicked off and is halfway through unbuttoning her jersey when there’s the click of a keycard unlocking her room. She only has time to frown and 180 before the handle turns and the door flies open.
Ashton storms in, slamming the door with enough force to rattle her teeth. “What the fuck, Denae? What did I just watch?”
She has Denae’s second room key. Denae has Ashton’s. They were exchanged with promises to only use them for good reason. Thundering in just to bitch Denae out does not count as a good reason, and Ashton better fucking know it.
Heat flares behind Denae’s eyes. “I don’t need this from you.”
“Yeah, clearly you do.” Ashton strides forward, and Denae has never backed down a day in her life; she’s not about to start now. “Who told you to run?”

Summary
“It happens to you all the time?”
“Yeah, pretty often. I get it, I mean…” Jam gestures to herself. “You know. I’m pretty masculine-looking myself.”
“I know, that’s why you’re my man,” Ashton says. That’s the joke. The punchline is that they’re women. It’s a lot less funny if they’re not. It almost stops being a joke at all.
“You know it,” Jam says, with a wink and an air kiss. Then she gets thoughtful and adds, “But the point is, you could be my man too.”
Ashton short-circuits. That sensation is back behind her ribs, like her CPU is overheating. She wants to make a fist around those words. She wants to hold them, feel them, get used to their shape. She wants to press them into her skin and figure out where they fit.
Say it again, she almost asks. Say that again, please.
