Fox sends Pitch back to the dugout, ends show after one season
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Fox has decided to cancel baseball drama Pitch after one season. The show was developed in partnership with Major League Baseball and featured actual team names and all that, and it centered around Genevieve Baker (played by Kylie Bunbury), an up-and-coming pitcher who becomes the first woman to play in the MLB. The series’ ratings started relatively strong when it premiered in September, but by the time the actual World Series rolled around, Fox decided to put its promotional focus on Lethal Weapon instead.
