A few weeks ago, we had a successful WBSC Women's Baseball World Cup Finals in Thunder Bay, Canada. The extraordinary development of women's baseball is visible not only in the players' performance but also in our umpires. We had a full-women crew working in this event for the second year in a row. Congratulations to all of them for being part of the continuous growth of this discipline. #BaseballWorldCupW
