MLB's move comes 28 years after the gender barrier for game officials was broken in the NBA, 10 years after it ended in the NFL and three years after the men's soccer World Cup employed a female referee.
Jen Pawol is set to become the first woman to umpire 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 on Sunday, MLB said Wednesday.
Pawol, a 48-year-old from New Jersey, worked spring training games in 2024 and this year.
