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 3, &#8220;Ella&#8217;s Legacy,&#8221; Ben reveals what he&#8217;s learned (and what we may never know) about Ella, connects her story to today, and pays his respects in person.
