Giants' Alyssa Nakken becomes first woman to interview for MLB manager role

Alyssa Nakken, Giants assistant coach since 2020, has formally interviewed for the team's open manager position.
Nakken is the first woman known to have interviewed for an on-field manager role in Major League Baseball.
The Giants are considering both internal and external candidates to replace former manager Gabe Kapler.
Nakken has focused on baserunning, outfield instruction, and in-game preparation in her coaching role.
She joins a growing number of women breaking barriers in baseball operations and coaching roles.
