Résumé
Margaret VillaA League of Her Own Richard A. Santillán (bio) I first met Margaret "Marge" Villa Cryan in 2012 at her home in La Mirada, California. I remember feeling an immense self-awareness of ethnic pride at meeting one of the only two Mexican Americans who played with the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League (AAGPBL) during the 1940s and 1950s. As I approached her front door, an energetic woman came bouncing out, shouting, "Welcome, Richard! You found the house!" My first impression of Marge was that she looked at least twenty-five years younger than her reported age of eighty-seven, could easily pass as a white person, and was shorter than I had imagined. She proudly wore a sweatshirt with the motif of the AAGPBL and had one of the firmest grips when we shook hands. "Come on in, and let's do some talking young man!" I explained to Marge that I appreciated the 1992 film A League of Their Own because it speaks directly about these talented players, but didn't see any clues regarding Latinas, not even a token reference to the nine Cuban women and two Mexican American women who played in the league.1 For me, it was imperative that the general public knew about her and the other trailblazing Latinas long neglected in public discourse and scholarly works. Marge responded with the sweetest words I had been long waiting to hear, "Young man, let me tell you a few interesting stories for your books." Margaret "Marge" Villa was born on December 21, 1925, and grew up on a twenty-acre ranch in Montebello, California, the third of four children of Jay and Eva Villa. Before the area incorporated into the city of Montebello on October 16, 1920, it was unofficially designated as Simons Brick Yard Company #3.2 The brick yard hired, first and foremost, Mexican laborers, and eventually formed baseball teams for both men and women comprised, for the most part, of Mexican ballplayers. Ernie, Marge's younger brother, played for years on the Simons team.3 As a young girl, Marge's baseball diamond was the [End Page 33] clay pits at the Simons Brick Yard. Generations of her family played baseball at Montebello High School. Marge was a tomboy as far back as she can remember. As a young girl, she had a magical relationship with her two brothers, Ernie and Tony—she idolized them. In turn, they adored her, respecting her natural talents in sports. Her brothers were outstanding ballplayers, and, unlike other brothers, took satisfaction in teaching Marge the finer points of the game. Ernie liked playing softball while Tony preferred baseball, meaning she learned the indispensable skills for both types of ball. Marge gives Tony credit for investing considerable hours coaching her fielding and batting. He was signed by the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1946 and played for the Valdosta Dodgers in the Class D Georgia-Florida League. He ended his professional career with the Sunset League in California in the early 1950s.4 Marge's brother Ernie played on the Simons baseball team and in high school, participated in other sports as well. By the time Marge was eleven or twelve years old, her reputation as a superior player was spreading like wildfire throughout the local baseball world. For most of her teenage years, it was not uncommon for Marge to be the youngest player on the team. She was always being scouted and heavily recruited by several teams during this period in her career, including the Forum Club of East Los Angeles, the Garvey Stars, Greenfield Service, and Crew Oldsmobile in the city of Fullerton in Orange County.5 Marge was only thirteen years old when she started playing for the Garvey Stars in 1938, continuing with the Stars until being recruited by the Orange County Lionettes, known as one of the premier women's softball teams not only in California but also in the nation. It is uncertain how old Marge was when she started playing for the Lionettes, fourteen or sixteen, but she once told me her mother said no at fourteen because she felt that Marge was way too young...
