LeAnn RimesSinger LeAnn Rimes is attached to star for director Rocky Lang ("Nervous Ticks") in "The Girl Who Struck Out Babe Ruth," reports The Hollywood Reporter.
The project, which is based on a true story, would see Rimes star as Tennessee native Jackie Mitchell, who, in 1931, became the only woman to strike out baseball legends Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig back-to-back, then was tossed out of the major leagues for being a woman.
