Betsy Jochum, 104, Dies; Last Original Member of Women's Baseball League
Betsy Jochum, the last of the 60 players from the inaugural season of what became known as the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League — which decades later inspired Penny Marshall's 1992 film, 'A League of Their Own' — died on May 31 at her home in South Bend, Ind. She was 104. Her death was announced by Carol Sheldon, vice president of the league's players association. 'When I got picked to play in the league, it was amazing,' Jochum (pronounced JOCK-em) told The South Bend Tribune in 2012. 'I was actually going to get paid for playing a game. Girls didn't do that back then.' At $50 a week, she was earning more than her father, a carpenter. In 1943 she joined the South Bend Blue Sox, one of four teams in what was initially called the All-American Girls Softball League. Philip K. Wrigley, the chewing-gum mogul and owner of the Chicago Cubs, started the league to maintain fan interest in baseball during World War II, when many major leaguers were serving in the military. The other teams that first season were the Kenosha Comets and the Racine Belles, in Wisconsin, and the Rockford Peaches, in Illinois. In her rookie season, the 5-foot-7 Jochum played in the outfield, batted .273, led the league in hits, stole 66 bases and was chosen for the All-Star Game at Wrigley Field in Chicago, the home of the Cubs. Players from South Bend and Rockford beat rivals from Kenosha and Racine, 16-0. The game, which drew 7,000 fans, raised money for the Red Cross and other wartime causes. Jochum fared even better in 1944. Her .296 batting average led the league, and she stole a remarkable 127 bases, including seven in one game. She earned the nicknames Sockum Jochum and Sultana of Swat. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

Ernie Clement homers and Blue Jays beat Cardinals 5-2 for 3-game sweep
ST. LOUIS — Ernie Clement homered and Spencer Turnbull worked two scoreless innings to win his Toronto debut as the Blue Jays beat the St. Louis Cardinals 5-2 on Wednesday for a three-game sweep. Clement finished with three hits but did not take the field in the ninth at third base after suffering an apparent leg injury. He dove for a grounder in the eighth and needed some attention but finished the inning. Clement's fourth homer gave Toronto a 5-2 lead in the fifth. Toronto won for the seventh time in eight games and is 22-10 over its last 32. Turnbull (1-0) worked the sixth and seventh innings, striking out two. He signed with Toronto last month and began the season in the minors. Turnbull played five seasons with Detroit and was with Philadelphia last year. Yariel Rodríguez pitched the ninth for his first major league save. The Cardinals lost their fourth straight. Matthew Liberatore (3-6) and gave up five runs, three earned, and eight hits in five innings. Yohel Pozo's second homer gave the Cardinals a 2-0 lead in the second. Cardinals infielder/outfielder Brendan Donovan didn't play after leaving Tuesday's game with a sore big left toe. The club is awaiting MRI results. He leads the team with a .310 average and 77 hits. Bo Bichette's sacrifice fly in the fourth scored Myles Straw and allowed Jonatan Clase to reach third. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. followed with an RBl single for a 4-2 lead. The Cardinals were swept in a three-game series at home for the first time since April 19-21, 2024, against Milwaukee. St. Louis' Sonny Gray (7-1, 3.35) pitches against Jacob Misiorowski, who will make his major league debut for host Milwaukee on Thursday. Toronto's Kevin Gausman (5-4, 3.87) faces host Philadelphia and Ranger Suarez (4-1, 2.70) on Friday. ___ AP MLB:
