The Taney Dragons may all be back to focusing on homework, but the honors haven’t finished coming in. According to the Associated Press, Mo’Ne Davis’ jersey from her LLWS-opening shutout will be donated to the Baseball Hall of Fame, and the Dragons will then play an exhibition game at Doubleday Field.
With that shutout, Davis became the LLWS’ first female pitcher to achieve that goal, and though the Dragons did not win the tourney, they captured the attention of baseball fans across the country (and in our own city). My bet is more people will take pictures with her jersey than the will with the combined no-no ball.
