A Few Good Women
The Texas Rangers held ball girl tryouts, and they were quite rigourous:
Major leaguers will be hitting the balls they'll be fielding, so they can't be afraid to sacrifice their bodies for the sport.
During the Sunday tryouts the players bounded and lunged across the emerald grass, stopping line drives. Then, with determined faces, they each whizzed the ball back across the field.
"To catch and throw well, that's a must," said Rangers announcer Chuck Morgan, who helped supervise the tryouts. "And you've got to pay attention to whether the ball's fair or foul."
The right candidate must be able to think quickly off the field as well.
The team is expanding the ball girl program, now in its second year, to include a more visible marketing role, including making special appearances at promotional events.

This thread is useless without pics! :-)
Absolutely right - and something tells me if they're going to do promos then fielding may not have to be their strongest asset.
There is video at the link.
"Ball girls sacrifice their bodies to score spots with Rangers."
"Ball girls sacrifice their virginities to score with Rangers."
Didn't the Governor of New York just get in a lot of trouble for the same thing?
