One of my old friend's daughters was an alternate for the Woman's Olympic Softball team - she pitched underhand at over 90 mph, and at softball distances, that's too fast for this old man to hit (and most college players would ageee).

Obviously, women would have a hard time competeing in MLB, but there's no reason that one in a million might not be able to make the show.
