"Jenny Cavnar Breaks Barriers as First Female MLB Play-by-Play Announcer"
Jenny Cavnar has made history by becoming the first female primary play-by-play announcer in Major League Baseball, joining the Oakland A’s broadcast team after the dismissal of longtime announcer Glen Kuiper, who used a racist slur on live TV last year. Cavnar, a five-time Emmy winner, has a rich background in sports broadcasting and is set to call a majority of A’s games alongside her new broadcast booth partner, Dallas Braden. Her hiring marks a significant step forward for diversity in sports broadcasting, following in the footsteps of other women breaking barriers in play-by-play roles in major professional sports leagues.
