ESPN announced Friday that former Olympic softball player Jessica Mendoza has been added to the Sunday Night Baseball broadcast team for the remainder of the 2015 MLB season, along with the AL Wild Card game.
Mendoza made history on August 24 when she became the first woman at ESPN to call an MLB game. A week later, Mendoza called the Cubs–Dodgers game on Sunday Night Baseball, during which Cubs pitcher Jake Arrieta threw a no-hitter.
According to ESPN’s announcement Friday, Mendoza will appear for the final three Sunday Night Baseball games of the regular MLB season, plus the AL Wild Card game.
