Report: Alyssa Nakken, Giants Meet; Thought to Be MLB's 1st Female Manager Candidate

Already a pioneer for women in MLB coaching, Alyssa Nakken continues to make history after interviewing for the San Francisco Giants' manager job, according to The Athletic's Andrew Baggarly.

Nakken, 33, is believed to be the first woman to ever formally interview for a managerial position at the MLB level. She was among the first round of the Giants' in-house interviews this past week along with bench coach Kai Correa and third base coach Mark Hallberg.

Hallberg is currently believed to be the in-house favorite, per the San Francisco's Chronicle's Susan Slusser.
