Jen Pawol is set to become the first woman to umpire a game in Major League Baseball when she works games this weekend between the Miami Marlins and Atlanta Braves.
Pawol will work the bases in Saturday's doubleheader at Truist Park and the plate Sunday, MLB said Wednesday.
Pawol, a 48-year-old from New Jersey, worked spring training games in 2024 and this year.
"Baseball's done a great job of being completely inclusive," Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. "I'll be watching. It's good for the game."
