Jen Pawol becomes the first woman to work behind the plate as an umpire in the major leagues, making history appear routine in Braves vs. Marlins game.

"I think Jen did a really nice job," Miami manager Clayton McCullough said after Atlanta's 7-1 win over the Marlins. "I think she's very composed back there. She handled and managed the game very well.

Pawol's rise to make MLB history came 28 years after the NBA gender barrier for game officials was broken and 10 years after the NFL hired its first full-time female official. The men's soccer World Cup first hired a female referee three years ago. The NHL has not had any women as on-ice officials.
