Irish Night at the Phillies! #phillies #missedmygirls #taneydragons (at Citizens Bank Park)

The Philadelphia Taney Dragons pitcher has become a media darling and she joins the 17 girls to have ever played in the 68 years of the Little League World Series. She has also earned the distinguishment of being the very first female pitcher to have thrown a shutout -- and not just once, twice! Back-to-back shutouts. Mo'ne Davis, who is 13, hurls a fastball that clocks in at a terrifying 70mph and she also throws a sick curveball. In the game against Nashville, she threw for 8 strikeouts in six innings with only two hits for a CG.  Davis has monster skill in pitching but aspires to play basketball for UConn. Perhaps the next time we see her in the magazines she will be winning the NCAAW Basketball Championships with future Maya Moores, Tricia Listons, and Stephanie Dolsons. For now though, Davis rules as the Queen of the Mound and I am sure that she will succeed in anything she aspires to do.
