The Cast Of 'A League Of Their Own' Just Reunited—And There's Definitely Crying In Baseball
Columbia Pictures

Several of the film's stars—including Rosie O'Donnell, Geena Davis, and Lori Petty—recently reunited with their Rockford Peaches team for the 2024 Chicago Sports Spectacular.

The Rockford Peaches are back!

On Nov. 24, the cast of A League of Their Own reunited at the Chicago Sports Spectacular. Stars Geena Davis, Lori Petty, and Rosie O’Donnell gathered at the Donald Stephens Convention Center to meet fans, sign memorabilia, and celebrate the 1992 classic.


Davis and Petty, who played sisters Dottie Hinson and Kit Keller, were joined by castmates like Bitty Schram (Evelyn Gardner), Megan Cavanagh (Marla Hooch), and Tracy Reiner (Betty "Spaghetti" Horn). Even Ellie Weingardt, who appeared as the film’s charm school instructor, participated.

While Tom Hanks and Madonna were absent, the reunion in Chicago was perfect, as the real-life Rockford Peaches represented Illinois in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League.

O’Donnell also revealed she’s kept in touch with Justin Scheller, who played Evelyn’s son Stillwell Angel, saying she helped coach him through scenes during filming.

Rosie O’Donnell shared a group photo on Instagram, writing, “the rockford peaches 2024.”

People were so happy about the reunion, as it is many folks' favorite movie.

Damning Leaked Report Reveals Embarrassing Demand Kash Patel Made After Charlie Kirk Assassination

FBI Director Kash Patel is facing criticism after a newly released report by the “National Alliance of Retired and Active Duty FBI Special Agents and Analysts" revealed Patel flew to Utah the day after far-right activist Charlie Kirk’s assassination and remained aboard the aircraft until officials provided him with a medium-sized FBI raid jacket.

Instead of immediately stepping into his role upon arriving at the site of the killing of someone he had publicly called a close friend, the FBI director reportedly fixated on wardrobe details—delaying his exit from the aircraft over the precise jacket and patches he believed he was entitled to, rather than proceeding with his duties.
