Queens native Olivia Pichardo made history Friday night, as the Brown freshman became the first woman to play in a Division-I baseball game.
She didn’t play in the Bears’ first 10 games, but Brown head coach Grant Achilles sent her to the plate for catcher Jacob Burley against Bryant.
“I hope it shows people that if a player is talented enough to be given the opportunity that they should be judged solely on their baseball abilities,” Achilles said,“It doesn’t just take her putting all the work and effort in. It takes a network of people that have supported her along the way. It takes teammates along the way.
