Fails WP:GNG. According to the AAGPBL website, Leach was with the Grand Rapids Chicks for a time in 1947. However, she is not mentioned in The Women of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League: A Biographical Dictionary and my searches on Newspapers.com and Google did not bring up any coverage of a baseball player.

  • Delete for lack of sources. Her name pops up in GBooks, associated with the Boston area. Probably not the same person and nothing for GNG. Would be nice to have a bio on the AAGPBL players, but we can't without sources. Oaktree b (talk) 22:10, 12 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - I found a picture of the 1947 team in newspapers.com search [1], and she is not even shown in the photo. The only other thing I find is a Beverly Leach trying out for a baseball team in 1950 (I put that citation into the page). DaffodilOcean (talk) 18:47, 16 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
