Patricia Scott [?Pat?] is a former pitcher who played in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League for parts of four seasons spanning 1948-1953. Listed at 5 ft 7 in, 155 lb., she batted and threw right-handed. A solid finesse pitcher, Patricia Scott had one of the best overhand deliveries during the last six years of the league. She guided the Fort Wayne Daisies to three consecutive pennants from 1951 to 1953, averaging 16 wins in each of them, while recording career best numbers in ERA, WHIP and SO/BB. Born in Covington, Kentucky, Scott was raised in a family farm located in the nearby town of Burlington. The farm included a baseball field, just like in the 1992 film Field of Dreams, where she began playing baseball when she was eight years old. I used to throw a ball against the barn, she explained in an interview. The only difference was that instead of corn, we grew tobacco around it, she added. When the young Pat was not doing farm chores, she was practicing ball throwings. To her delight, a minor league baseball team came to practice on their ball field.
