Dolores Moore [?Dee?] was an infielder who played from 1953 through 1954 in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League. Listed at 5 ft 7 in, 153 lb., she batted and threw right-handed. Born in Chicago, Illinois, Eleanor Moore enjoyed playing sandlot baseball with her brother Tom when she was five years old. Later during her youth she was playing at Hubble Park, where future Hall of Fame Rogers Hornsby told her she should play in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League, but she was too young for league, though. When Moore turned 16, she was recruited by the league, but her mother would not let her go because of all the travel. She instead gained experience in the National Girls Baseball League of Chicago during four years, where legendary athlete Jesse Owens presented her with the league's Most Valuable Player Award in 1952. By then, Woody English went to the AAGPBL as a manager with the Grand Rapids Chicks and invited her to come along. In 1953 Moore became a member of the Chicks, playing for them at first base and second base depending on her team's needs. A solid hitter and fielder, in one game she drove in six runs.
