Jerre DeNoble (June 11, 1923 โ€“ January 18, 2011) was an American outfielder who played part of a season in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League. She batted and threw right-handed.[1]

Born in

Havana, Cuba.[2][3]

DeNoble was regarded as a solid outfielder and for her flashy speed on the basepaths, but she did not have many opportunities to show off her qualities after sustaining assorted injuries to her shoulder, a leg and a broken finger. She contributed to the Redwings first victory that year by scoring the winning run in the 12th inning of a game against the Racine Belles. During her brief stint with Peoria, she posted a .107 batting average and stole 11 bases in 21 game appearances.[1][4]

Following her baseball career, DeNoble worked at the

Owens-Illinois for 40 years, retiring in 1981.[1]

Since 1988 she is part of Women in Baseball, a permanent display based at the

Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown, New York, which was unveiled to honor the entire All-American Girls Professional Baseball League rather than individual baseball personalities.[5]

DeNoble was a longtime resident of San Lorenzo, California, where she died at the age of 89.[2]
