softball is the gameplay that most women look forward to engaging with sport, as we further the idea that baseball isn't primarily just for men to play. when expanded on the sport softball is said t be harder than baseball, As men who play baseball engage their upper body strength, women must engage their hips. Hence, women who pitch have to do a variation from, dragging their cleats and popping their hip out with the duration of their arm running a 360 and releasing from the tip of there finger- tips.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Softball
