Unprecedented Perfect Game Achieved by Bay Area Woman in MLB History
Alexandra Irving, an official scorer for MLB games, has become the first woman in league history to score a perfect game. Irving marked the final out of Domingo German's perfect game against the Oakland Athletics, and her physical scorecard will be displayed in the National Baseball Hall of Fame. Irving, who began scoring games as a teenager, has been working as an official scorer for the past seven seasons and hopes to inspire more women to pursue the role.
