Will Winning Girls 2 be there? The suspicious tweet
“Spring training is officially underway,” tweeted Prime Video posting a gif featuring the stars of Winning girls. Naturally many fans wondered if that meant a second season had been officially confirmed. But the streaming video service didn’t give further explanations. Deadlineciting its own sources, claims that the post in question was written simply to celebrate the start of the Major League Baseball spring season.

Winning Girls: A story that’s not just about baseball
Created by Will Graham e Abbi Jacobson, Winning Girls: The Series tells of the women who, in 1943, formed the first professional baseball league in the United States while the men were fighting in World War II. But it’s a story that doesn’t just talk about sport as it tells the bonds, aspirations and tenacity of these women – all with a different story behind them – struggling to achieve personal emancipation. The first season quickly became a little cult for the community LGBTQI+so much so that it received three nominations – including best new series – ai GLAAD Media Awards.
The cast includes, among others, Jacobson herself, Sang Adams, D’Arcy Carden, Gbemisola Ikumelo, Roberta Collindrez, Kelly McCormack, Priscilla Delgado, Molly Ephraim, Kate Berlant, Melanie Field, Nick Offerman, Rosie O’Donnelle Patrick J. Adams.
