Suzyn Waldman Becomes a World Series First

2627175EZ002_W_Series_Gm_6It is a factoid that ardent baseball fans will remember. Suzyn Waldman is now part of baseball history. She is the first woman to broadcast a World Series Game:

“… Waldman, 63, was the second woman in history to regularly serve as a full-time color commentator for a Major League Baseball team, and the second woman to serve as a play-by-play announcer. Since 2005, she has worked as an analyst alongside WCBS radio play-by-play man John Sterling, after spending nearly two decades covering the Yankees for WFAN and the YES Network.”

And perhaps the next step is to have such story not be significant news but an everyday occurrence.
