Effectively Wild Episode 2310: Only a Woman: Ella Black, Lost and Found (Part 2–Ella’s Season)
Podcast: Effectively Wild: A FanGraphs Baseball PodcastPublished On: Wed Apr 16 2025
Description: Ella Black was the first woman to write about baseball for a national publication—if her name was Ella Black, and if she was a woman. On Ella Black: Lost and Found, a three-part scripted series from Effectively Wild, Ben Lindbergh explores what we know about the enigmatic trailblazer and tries to solve some of the mysteries that have surrounded her ever since she debuted—and, just as suddenly, disappeared—in 1890. On Part 2, “Ella’s Season,” Ben chronicles Ella’s coverage of baseball’s civil war, explores her own disputes with skeptics, and explains how both conflicts ended.
