For a league not expected to last even one season, the Venus Baseball League is exceeding everyone's wildest dreams, kicking off its fourth season on April 4.

"We were hoping to give it one good year," said VBL Commissioner, Tom Hanks. "If anything, we were hoping that the first season would pique people's interest in the VBL with the stars as players and then move on to using other players. But it became so popular with the stars that we continued the league as it was," said Hanks. "The enthusiasm of the stars is still the league's driving force."

The Detroit Divas are the defending champions; they have won the last two VBL championships.
