The MLB announced that it has appointed Kerwin Danley as its first black umpire crew chief and Alfonso Marquez as its first Latino-born crew chief
The MLB announced on Thursday it appointed Kerwin Danley as its first black umpire crew chief and Alfonso Marquez as its first Latino-born crew chief. Danley, 58, started umpiring for the major leagues in 1992 and was hired full-time in 1998. His resume includes umpiring for the 2008 and 2018 World Series and two All-Star Games, according to MLB. He played baseball during his college days at San Diego State and was named the First-Team All-American in 1983.
A number of African-Americans have also taken leadership positions in the MLB umpire staff, including Peter Woodfork, senior vice president of baseball operations and the late Chuck Meriwether, who became a supervisor after umpiring. But none of their careers would have taken off without Emmett Ashford, who paved the way for diversity in umpiring. Ashford first stepped onto a major league ball field on April 11, 1966, according to the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
