Jessica Mendoza, a gold-medal-winning Olympic softball player, will replace Curt Schilling on ESPN’s broadcast Sunday night of the Chicago Cubs-Los Angeles Dodgers game. ESPN pulled Schilling from Sunday’s game as well as a Little League World Series game earlier this week because he shared a meme on Twitter that suggested extremist Muslims were comparable to Nazis.

Mendoza, primarily an analyst for women’s college softball at ESPN, became the first woman to call a Major League Baseball game for ESPN on Monday when she joined Dave O’Brien and Dallas Braden for the network’s St. Louis Cardinals-Arizona Diamondbacks game.

“I was nervous,” she said. “I definitely tried to prepare as if I’d done it a million times so it wouldn’t seem like anything unique. My heart was pumping in the first inning like it was in the first inning of an Olympic game. But after that first at-bat — boom! — it felt comfortable.”

She was scheduled to return on Labor Day for the Baltimore Orioles-Yankees game when she was asked to fill in for Schilling.
