Bianca Smith is making baseball history.
The Red Sox are hiring Smith as a minor league coach, according to the Boston Globe.
The hiring will make Bianca Smith the first black woman ever to coach baseball at the professional level.
Smith, who most recently was an assistant baseball coach and hitting coordinator at Carroll University, will primarily work with infielders at the Red Sox’s minor league facility in Fort Meyers, Fla.
“She was a great candidate coming in,” Red Sox vice president of player development Ben Crockett told the Globe.
“She’s had some really interesting experiences and has been passionate about growing her skill set and development herself.”
Sports career
Smith interned for the Texas Rangers and Cincinnati Reds in the baseball operations departments and worked in amateur administration for MLB.
She played softball at Dartmouth from 2010-12 before leading as director of baseball operations at Case Western Reserve University from 2013-17 and as an assistant coach with University of Dallas in 2018, according to the Globe.
