Toni Stone is the subject of the Martha Ackman biography, Curveball. Here are links to the NPR interview with Ackman and the Radcliffe Quarterly article. I got to meet and hear Martha Ackman a few years ago at the Jerry Malloy Conference that was held in Birmingham. Yes, I bought the book. No, I haven't yet read it.

I selected the George Wilson card because the image hadn't been added to Zistle. That has been corrected. Gary Ashwill has a nice post on George Wilson.

Checklists sometimes get overlooked. This one is a bit dark, but the scan turned out decent. Again, another image that Zistle didn't have.

How to explain that face Toni Stone is making? Do you think she was a Monica Seles on the mound, grunting as she released a pitch? I've known softball pitchers to do that. In fact I wrote a story about one who did.
