Hear That Call / by isbmlamloi (PG)
Title: Hear That Call
Author:
isbmlamloi
Fandom: A League of Their Own
Genre: AU
Pairing: Jimmy Dugan/Dottie Hinson, implied Mae Mordabito/Doris Murphy
Length: Short (4.595 words)
Author's Summary:
Dottie goes home to bury Bob, then returns to see Kit pitch the World Series. Jimmy deals with the second year of the AAGPBL.
Review:
Short but nice AU if Dottie's husband hadn't come home from the war. I love A League of Their Own and wish there were more fics for it - especially ones that still stay pretty true to the film and the actual history of the league. This fic does that pretty well, though obviously it is a little darker and less comedic given the nature of the AU. I had actually started reading this hoping there would be a bit more of the tagged Mae/Doris ship, but unfortunately there's only a few little hints of it - wear your shipping goggles :)
