Mildred Marion Warwick [״Mille״] (October 18, 1922 – December 9, 2006) was an infielder who played from 1943 through 1944 in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League.
She was one of the most feared hitters in the early years of the circuit, setting an all-time hitting streak record during her very short career.
The league started with four teams, the Kenosha Comets, the Racine Belles, the Rockford Peaches and the South Bend Blue Sox.
[5] She started at third base for the Peaches, managed by Eddie Stumpf, as a part of a well assembled infield that included Dorothy Kamenshek (1B), Mildred Deegan (2B) and her fellow Gladys Davis (SS).
[6] From June 20 to 27, 1943, Warwick hit safely in 13 consecutive games to set an all-time league record that stood until Kenosha Comets' Elizabeth Mahon tied it two years later.
She batted a .263 average in 88 games, a pretty good performance considering her teammate Davis was the only one to reach the .300 mark in the inaugural season (.332).
In 1945 she married hockey player Ken McAuley, a goaltender for the NHL New York Rangers, and decided to settle down with her husband in Edmonton, Alberta.
