Kellogg signed a contract offer for $75 a week plus food expenses when she first joined the league, because that figure doubled her pay as a Bell Telephone operator at the time.

The Millerettes, managed by former major leaguer Bubber Jonnard, compiled the worst mark of the league (45–72) and finished last in both halves of the season, 8½ games back of fifth place overall, 26½ out of first.

Due to the lack of fan support and close competition, the Millerettes folded at the end of the season and were replaced by the Fort Wayne Daisies in 1944.

In that year, she also posted career-numbers in average (.248), hits (117), runs (52) and RBI (43), while leading the league with most at-bats (472) and games played at first base.

She remained a Brooklyn resident and the field containing her namesake is the current home of the Columbia Central High School softball program.
