A League of Their Own Coach Jimmy Costume

Diamond Boss

Jimmy Dugan was an amazing Club slugger. At one time. A long time ago. We can neither confirm or deny any of his baseball skills currently, as it's a bit hard to tell with him sleeping and drinking all the time. What we do know is that he was paid to manage the women's baseball team, the Peaches, during World War II, and that his team went to the World Series.

Fun Details

If you can relate to Coach Jimmy, then you should probably make sure to show up to practice in uniform at least. Our A League of Their Own Coach Jimmy Costume ought to cover it. It has a button-up shirt with patches on the front and sleeve. There are pants with elastic waist and cuffs, a faux leather belt, knee-high socks, and baseball cap. You'll look like the classic player in no-time! Just be sure to remember: Deep breaths and minimal yelling.

We gotcha, coach!

Of course, good ol' Jimmy's coaching ordeal was a bit rocky to begin with. What with him thinking the women's baseball league was a joke, showing up to the first game drunk, and practically sleeping through the first few games. Don't worry. It got better from there (thankfully). He eventually stepped up to the plate, so to speak, and started coaching. He had to learn a couple things about how coaching women was a bit different though, such as how to approach some of his female players (hint, screaming at them that there's no crying in baseball doesn't usually help), but once he figured that out, they did really well.
