Former umpire Bernice Gera was once told that she should've stayed in the kithen by a manager after correcting a missed call.

This past weekend, West Milford's Jen Pawol became the first female umpire to call a Major League Baseball game.

Jen Pawol breezed through Sunday’s Marlins-Braves game as if breaking a gender barrier was just another day on the job.

One could say Jen Pawol earned the greatest compliment an umpire could get: Aside from her trailblazing debut, you'd have hardly noticed her.
