So, whats next?
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: In writing the finale not knowing whetherPitchwould be renewed, did you consider other endings?
KEVIN FALLS: Not really, because we felt so good about the show.
We knew we were writing to that end line.
From the beginning of the season, thats where we knew we were going to end up.
We talked briefly there was one brief discussion about whether to come up with an alternate ending.
Why did you want to end the season with Ginny getting injured in particular?
We think it will just be more emotional if we see her overcome those obstacles.
So thats what we were attempting to do.
Why do you thinkPitchdidnt quite catch on this fall?
Thats a good question.
We struggle with that because we are so happy with the show.
Look, its always harder for a show to launch.
Theres other shows that dont find their audience in midseason.
That was something that we were willing to take our chances on.
So we will see what happens.
Lets turn to what may happen in season 2.
Where would you want to pick up with Ginny?
Might we see her back down in the minors rehabbing?
I think thats fair to say if shes certainly been rehabbing over the weekend.
All of those things would come into play.
Even in the dress episode, Ginny had already mulled quitting.
Where do you think she stands with those feelings now after getting injured?
I think that would actually be something that she would think about in the offseason.
You raise a very good point, which is, Why am I doing this?
I proved that I could do it.
I hurt my arm.
I signed my deal.
I have some money in the bank.
Why dont I go into broadcasting?
Why dont I do something else?
Or go back to school?
Why do I want to go put myself through this?
And I think that would be something.
Clearly, we set up in that last episode whats going to happen between Mike and Rachel.
Hes certainly not going to let Ginny struggle as she comes back in rehab.
Mike Lawson is not the punch in of guy who will let her struggle alone.
Hes certainly not going to try and make that something hes interested in romantically.
I think that he would be exploiting her if it was something like that.
Is there a question of instead of being traded that he could decide maybe this is his final season?
His characters age will be 37, which is the tail end.
We discussed the idea that hes certainly going to come back to the team.
Hes got to mend the fence with Blip, thats another relationship that has to be repaired.
I think theyll come together.
Im confident of that, but its going to be fun to see how they do come together.
Bringing the team back and also what happens after his career is something weve explored.
In terms of Amelia, where is she going as she is flying off?
Shes going to Cabo.
If you look at the screen, youll see the flight shes getting on is heading to Cabo.
Shes going to clear her head and take a break.
We talked about that too.
Would she come back to help Ginny?
Does Ginny try and get her back?
Does Amelia represent somebody else?
Does she come back to her life in a different capacity?
All of those things are on the table.
We did like Ali Larter very much, so I dont see her going anywhere.
Do you see a future season where we see other women also playing for MLB?
I dont think thats something that we talked about.
I like the idea more of like Amelia, or some woman, in the front office.
We had Wendie Malick, who was one of the owners.
Thats interesting to us, the MLB is always very supportive of that.
All of those things are the kinds of things that we want to do on the show.
Can you talk about where Blips mindset is?
Hes playing with his ring in that final scene.
Is he really mulling leaving Evelyn in that final scene?
I wouldnt take the ring thing too literally.
I think I play with my ring and Im happily married.
Do you look at something like that as among the things why people didnt tune in?
Its hard to say.
They travel together and that locker room is their workspace.
That doesnt mean we cant have drama, we have plenty of drama there.
We may just be starting somewhere in January when people are at home.
These are all things that weve discussed and will talk about as we move forward.
