Will 'Pitch' Have A Season 2 On Fox? Fans Launch Campaign To #KeepHerInTheGame, Showrunner Talks Move To Summer Or Hulu

"Pitch," the sports drama that centers on a female MLB player, has concluded with 10 episodes on Fox last December. Its renewal chances are still uncertain at this point but fans are hoping that the network will give it another chance.

"Pitch" hasn't enjoyed a big push in the ratings as it only averaged above 2.5 million viewers each week, TV Series Finale cites. It has also failed to have a higher reach in its demographic, thus its renewal chances are currently slim.

But in convincing the network to give "Pitch" a second season, an international campaign has been launched with a special video, which you can watch below. Fans released #KeepHerInTheGame, which features avid viewers from as far as Korea who is batting for their favorite show's renewal. Will Fox listen?

According to Screener, though "Pitch" hasn't received a bigger audience it is one of the most inspiring shows on TV today. It also has a social relevance that's missing from other series.

The story follows Kylie Bunbury as Ginny Baker, the first baseball female pitcher in the Major Leagues. As the only female player, she has to weather through a different set of challenges, including proving that she can be equal, if not better, than her counterparts. The character could become a worthy role model for girls, if only Fox will give the show another life and a better TV schedule so that it gains more following.

"Pitch" showrunner Kevin Falls recently talked with The Hollywood Reporter on the show's chances. He cited that the show was always meant to have 10 episodes only and that it was supposed to debut later on, and not during the fall schedule.

Falls understand the ratings failed, but what he knows for now is that Fox plans to re-air the show during its summer slate or move the series on Hulu. Perhaps that will bring in more interest.

But the showrunner also admits he's not privy to any conversations about the show's status. "Our fate will be determined in the mid- to late-spring," he said. "We're a bubble show but I do feel like they do like the show," he added, referring to the network executives.
