  • First woman manager of an affiliated baseball team

    From RW:

    Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports that the Yankees have named Rachel Balkovec the manager at Low-A Tampa, making her the first woman to manage an affiliated minor league club.

    She is only 34 y/o.

    Good for Rachel, and good for the Yankees.

      A rising tide lifts all boats. Good news for baseball.
      More American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.

        Yes, very good news. A female GM, a female minor league mgr and a female professional player (Australia) all in about 1 yr's time. I think it's only a matter of time before we see a female player (probably lefty RP) in MLB, altho that may be a long time.

          It is definitely good for the game. Lots of very bright minds that should be very much more involved.
