BALTIMORE — Orioles broadcaster Melanie Newman became the first female broadcaster in franchise history to call play-by-play for a regular season game on Tuesday.
This comes as the club hosted the Miami Marlins.
Newman handled play-by-play duties on the 44-station Orioles Radio Network alongside Geoff Arnold.
She became the fourth active female game broadcaster in Major League Baseball and became the fourth woman to handle play-by-play duties for a Major League Baseball game in 28 years.
