Doris Satterfield

Doris L. Satterfield [Sadie] (July 27, 1926 – November 4, 1993) was a left and center fielder who played from 1947 through 1954 in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League.

[1] A three-time All-Star, Doris Satterfield established herself as one of the most feared hitters in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League in a span of eight years.

She joined the city league at age fifteen, and for three years took part in the National Softball Tournament held at Detroit, Michigan.

She earned her first All-Star berth in 1950, repeating in 1953 and 1954, while the Chicks, with Woody English at the helm, won their second title in 1953, two to zero games, against the Kalamazoo Lassies.

[6][7] During the 1950 season, Satterfield spoiled a no-hit bid by Fort Wayne Daisies pitching great Dorothy Wiltse in the seventh inning, smacking a clean single to center field.
