when world war ii threatens to shut down major league baseball, candy magnate and cubs owner walter harvey (garry marshall) persuades his fellow owners to bankroll a women's league. ira lowenstein (david strathairn) is put in charge, and ernie capadino (jon lovitz) is sent out to recruit players. capadino attends an industrial-league softball game in rural oregon and likes what he sees in dottie (geena davis), the catcher for a local dairy's team. dottie turns down capadino's offer, happy with her simple farm life while waiting for her husband bob (bill pullman) to come back from the war. her sister and teammate, kit (lori petty), however, is desperate to get away and make something of herself. capadino is not impressed by kit's hitting performance, but agrees to take her along if she can change dottie's mind. dottie agrees, but only for her sister's sake.

the earliest documented mention of haselstauden dates back to 17 september 1249. pope innocent iv made a written remark about "stiglingen" alongside "tornburon" (dornbirn) and "kuun" (today's parcel knie). by "stiglingen", he meant the populated area along the stiglbach, not far from today's center. the name derives probably from the – mostly used in austria – word "staircase/stairs" ("stiege"). what was meant by this "staircase" could not be reconstructed. it may have referred to the very rugged river course with sometimes very steeply sloping levels.
