Andréanne Leblanc, batting lefty and seen from the third-base side of home plate, completes the followthrough of her swing while Heights catcher Beth Greenwood, in her squat, watches the flight of the ball to the right of the photo. Leblanc wears a purple jersey with orange trim, grey pants with purple trim, white spikes, a black batting ghelment, white and red batting gloves, and her braided brown pony tail whips out behind her back. Greenwood wears a white uniform with green sleeves and orange trim and green catcher's gear, including a hockey-style helmet. The umpire is at the edge of the photo the right. In the background, out of focus, the Hunters watch from their dugout behind red WPBL banners and the crowd watches above them.

On a sunny day at Robin Roberts Stadium, left-handed-hitting Edith De Leija of the Boston Hunters batter swings a white bat. She wears a white uniform with orange trim and green sleeves, a black batting helmet, and white batting gloves and spikes swings. The ball, heading left to right, is in frame on the left. Firebells catcher Alexia Jorge, in a purple jersey with orange trim and grey pants with purple trim, holds her black glove out to receive the pitch on the right of the image. Behind them is the Hunters dugout and the stands. The front of the dugout is draped with red WPBL banners, and seven Hunters players stand in the dugout watching the action.
