⚾️In the 1970s, the Oakland Athletics introduced "ball girls" (young girls who would sit in foul territory to retrieve baseballs grounded foul by batters).
⚾️Debbie Sivyer, was one of the first ones hired. She was paid five dollars an hour and would use the money to buy ingredients for what would become her famous cookies. She instituted a "milk-and-cookies" break for the umpires. ⚾️In 1976, at the age of 19, Sivyer married Randall Fields, taking the name she would soon use for her business, “Mrs. Fields”. ⚾️Mrs. Fields began her business in 1977 in Palo Alto, California, and at its height franchised 650 retail bakeries in the United States and over 80 in 11 different countries.
