Win or Lose is written and directed by Carrie Hobson and Michael Yates. It is executive produced by Hobson, Yates Lindsey Collins, Pete Docter, and Andrew Stanton, with David Lally and Max Sachar serving as producers. Emmy-winning composer Ramin Djawadi is providing the musical score for the series.
“I played softball growing up,” Hobson said in a press release. “Inspired by that experience, we felt fast-pitch softball was the perfect backdrop for the show. There are so many facets to playing sports that I love — it can bring out the best and worst of a person, the calmest person can lose their temper. And when it comes to winning and losing — the consequences are nothing, and yet, they’re everything. We really felt like it was the best arena for the themes we loved.”
