Aldine Calacurcio (June 8, 1928 – July 4, 2017) was a former shortstop who played in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League. Calacurcio batted and threw right handed. She was born in Rockford, Illinois.[1]

In 1947, Calacurcio attended the AAGPBL spring training games held at Havana, Cuba. Afterwards, she saw limited action with her hometown Rockford Peaches.[2]

The AAGPBL folded in 1954, but there is a permanent display at the Baseball Hall of Fame and MuseumatCooperstown, New York, since November 5, 1988, that honors the entire league rather than any individual figure.[3]

Calacurcio died on July 4, 2017, in Rockford Illinois.[4] Her funeral was attended by numerous Rockfordians who respected her and the legacy of the Rockford Peaches.
