Margaret Eloise "Sonny" Berger (December 24, 1922 – January 25, 2015) was a pitcher who played from 1943 through 1944 in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League.
[3] Born in Homestead, Florida, Sonny Berger was one of the sixty original players of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League in its inaugural season.
Of those, sixty were selected as the first women to play on the first four teams: the Kenosha Comets, Racine Belles, Rockford Peaches and South Bend Blue Sox.
[4][5][6] Berger was allocated to the South Bend Blue Sox, playing for them two seasons, to become a major star in both years.
[10] In 1988, Berger received recognition when the Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown, New York, dedicated a permanent display to the entire league rather than any individual player.
