I think the the legal eagles may have been in places already. We've always done it with girl/boy doubleheaders mainly on Tuesdays and Fridays. For some reason they changed about 4 years ago so that the boys would play first followed by the girls. It backfired and they have been back to girls first ever since. Fortunately I think the girls games are getting more popular as time goes on as the players are getting better and better what with all the youth leagues and tournaments they can play in. I'm at the school of the defending 5A girls champions tonight. They pull in pretty good crowds. These were a group of girls that grew up playing in tournaments and games as kids all over and it paid off for them. And the crowds follow.
