The San Francisco Giants made some positive history this week when they hired Alyssa Nakken, the first female, full-time coach in MLB.
The San Francisco Giants rounded out new manager Gabe Kapler's major league staff with the historic hiring of MLB's first female, full-time coach.
Alyssa Nakken, who joined the Giants as an intern in 2014, will have the title of major league assistant coach and will work with another new hire, Mark Hallberg, to "focus their talents on helping to build a winning culture in the clubhouse,"Nakken played softball at Sacramento State and had previously done work for the Giants relating to the amateur draft and player development.
The hiring of Nakken and Hallberg brings the number of coaches on Kapler's staff to 13, with only one holdover -- third base coach Ron Wotus -- from last season. MLB rules state that only seven coaches can be in uniform during games, but there are no limits on the number of coaches who can be employed at once.
