announced the new series will follow five wives, ex-wives and girlfriends of Major League Baseball players and veterans of various teams as they face the challenges of coping with “marriage, gossip, and fame” – and each other – as part of the “inner circle of baseball wives.”
Taking place in Scottsdale, AZ where MLB Spring Training is held, these ladies are sure to come out swinging in the drama department! “No shrinking violets here,” the promo blurb cites of the cast. “These ladies are fiercely protective of their turf and their men and if they have to bring on a little drama — then so be it.”
The season will follow the women through the complex world of MLB as they define friends from foes and struggle with relationship drama galore! “With the baseball season being the longest in professional sports, the women count on their friends to be their emotional support while their husbands are on the road, but sometimes a friend can be your worst enemy. Rumors swirl and friendships are tested among the professional athletes’ wives as they are forced to make emotional decisions, proving that their lives are often just like everyone else’s.”
The new Baseball Wives are: Anna Benson (wife of retired Arizona Diamondbacks’ Pitcher Kris Benson), Tanya Grace (ex-wife of retired Chicago Cubs’ First Baseman Mark Grace), Chantel Kendall (ex-wife of Kansas City Royals’ Jason Kendall), Brook Villone (wife of Ron Villone) and Jordana Lenz (linked to no particular athlete in particular – but I’m sure she has an MLB ex or two somewhere).
Well, if you love the trashy over the top antics of Basketball Wives get ready for Baseball Wives!
