— Minor League Baseball (@MiLB) August 6, 2025Pawol, 48, has been umpiring in the minor leagues since 2016, working her way up to Triple-A. She’ll be a base umpire during the Marlins-Braves double-header on Saturday.
“This historic accomplishment in baseball is a reflection of Jen’s hard work, dedication and love of the game,” baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred said in a statement to the AP. “She has earned this opportunity, and we are proud of the strong example she has set, particularly for all the women and young girls who aspire to roles on the field.”
A very cool moment for the sport overall, and for girls and women who hope to get their foot in the door if their skills are commensurate with that of boys and men who’d already long had a shot.
