The concept is misleading. They have a ready and waiting audience expecting a series version of the movie. But this one is less about a women's baseball league and more about the 1940s difficulties of lesbian relationships and racial injustice. The baseball league seems to be an excuse to create stories about these issues. The series is well produced and many will enjoy those stories. Others will tune in expecting fun stories about women's baseball and will instead find a heavy dose of stories about lesbian relationships and racial inequality. So Netflix's "A League of Their Own" is good for what it is. But it isn't what many will be expecting.
