Jenny Cavnar Makes History Calling MLB Play-by-Play on TV

Jenny Cavnar made history when she handled play-by-play duties for a major league team, calling the game for the Colorado Rockies on Monday night.

Cavner called the Rockies' home game against the San Diego Padres on Root Sports Rocky Mountain, with former major leaguers Ryan Spilborghs and Jeff Huson serving as the color commentators on the broadcast.

"I'm really honored on the historical context of it, but I'm more so excited for the team effort. We have such a great team of broadcasters, producers, directors -- so it'll be really fun to collaborate with them and do the game tonight," she said to MLB.
