Lupe García is a main character in the Amazon Prime Video television series, A League of Their Own. She is portrayed by Roberta Colindrez.
Lupe, along with the rest of the eventual players of the Rockford Peaches, is seen trying out for the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League in episode one, Batter Up. Despite being a pitcher, Carson exclaims after watching Lupe bat at try-outs, that "she can also hit". This shows Lupe's skill as player, as being able to both pitch and hit well is rare. Former Cubs pitcher, and the Peaches assigned coach, Dove Porter, takes a liking to Lupe during their first practice and teaches her his famous forkball pitch.
Lupe's belief that Dove is the only one who cares about her, causes friction with her teammates throughout the first half of the series. Especially as Dove often does not have Lupe's best interests at heart; shown through his dismissal of her concerns about her pitching arm, his objection to rest her, and his inability to let Lupe develop her own pitch - instead, insisting she'd be the one to "carry on his legacy". However, even after Dove quits in Switch Hitter, and Lupe and Carson become co-coaches, they still struggle to meet eye to eye. Lupe still seemingly distrustful of Carson after being left out of the night practices that happened during The Cut Off. After Carson's speech in the locker room in Back Footed, Lupe manages to cooperate with her on the field, leading to their win against the South Bend Blue Sox.
•Lupe is the pitcher for the Rockford Peaches. She tells Dove in Find The Gap that she taught herself how to pitch. Her player number is 7.
•Despite being nicknamed "the Spanish Striker" throughout the series, Lupe is Mexican.
•Lupe wears a gold chained necklace at all times, even while she's playing, despite the fact that any jewellery was forbidden during games or practice - as stated in the AAGPBL rules of conduct.
•Lupe has a daughter, mentioned to Esti in Full Count. She explains that she was young, and her parents took her daughter away from her, in fear of her failing at being able to raise her properly. The interaction explains Lupe's previous behaviour towards Esti throughout the series, as Lupe says "you have her eyes".
•It is assumed that the 'Alma' mentioned in Lupe's letter in The Cut Off is her daughter.
•She mentions to Carson in Batter Up that her dad is very strict and didn't let her come, but she "just came" anyway.
