MiLB clubs celebrate International Women's Day

March is recognized as Women's History Month in the US, but every March 8 the world unites to celebrate International Women's Day. A day to recognize and honor the women who have not only blazed trails in industries everywhere, but also those who diligently follow in their footsteps -- keeping the path wide open for young girls to follow.

Minor League Baseball proudly recognized all of these women as well as those who keep their clubs, day-to-day operations and the game up and running. Each club went to social media as part of their endorsement for the hardworking ladies who make the incredible MiLB experience possible.

The Dayton Dragons got their female staff together for a group shot in front of the team logo.

Happy International Women's Day 🌟

To all of the incredible women in our front office and around the world, we support you! #WomenInBaseball #IWD pic.twitter.com/qaRzbD0Swb

Some clubs highlighted specific members of their staff. Like the Somerset Patriots:

"A little girl can look at an organization and see themselves as a coach, an analyst, a photographer, a dietician, you name it. It’s an incredible privilege to contribute to that by being a female presence in the dugout." - @amanda_brady17 #WomenInBaseball #IWD pic.twitter.com/dhLE4KFuI5

Even one big league organization got in on the MiLB International Women's Day appreciation. The D-backs gave a shoutout to Hillsboro Hops manager Ronnie Gajownik.

This summer, she'll start her first season as manager of the @HillsboroHops. This spring, she's been an invaluable member of Torey Lovullo's coaching staff.
