Beth Mowins makes history on a Cubs broadcast look easy on Mother’s Day weekend

I don’t know what I expected the first woman calling a baseball game for my favorite team 145 years after their founding to sound like, but Beth Mowins made it sound easy - like of course it was the most natural thing in the world that a woman would call the Cubs games on Mother’s Day weekend in 2021. It was as inevitable as a Willson Contreras scoring on a lazy popup to shallow center [VIDEO].

And just like that Beth Mowins was calling play-by-play for the Chicago Cubs.
