Jenny Cavnar graces the Rockies radio booth and the Rox sign a top international free agent in today's links

Jenny Cavnar's turn in the Rockies' radio booth last night marked one of the few times a woman has called a Major League Baseball game. That's somewhat surprising; sure, Major League Baseball is a game played by men, but that should have no bearing on who broadcasts the games. The qualifications for broadcasting should be knowledge of the game and fluency with language, not gender.

Breaking into broadcasting has to be incredibly difficult unless you know somebody. It must be doubly frustrating to be on the outside when mediocre broadcasters like Joe Buck, Tim McCarver, and Harold Reynolds seem to have lifetime passes.
