Alyssa Nakken, who became the first woman to coach on the field in a major league game when she worked first base for San Francisco in April 2022, has interviewed for the Giants managerial vacancy. President of Baseball Operations Farhan Zaidi confirmed Sunday night that Nakken had gone through a first-round interview last week.

San Francisco Giants assistant coach Alyssa Nakken stands during a moment of silence for Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., who died Thursday night, before a baseball game between the Giants and the Los Angeles Dodgers in San Francisco, Friday, Sept. 29, 2023.
President of Baseball Operations Farhan Zaidi confirmed Sunday night that Nakken had gone through a first-round interview last week. Her husband, Robert, announced in August on social media the coach is expecting the couple’s first child — a girl — on Feb. 9. Zaidi has said he hopes to find a new manager by the start of free agency to replace Gabe Kapler, fired with three days remaining in the season. He was 295-248 over three-plus seasons, with the Giants winning a franchise-record 107 games and edging the 106-win Dodgers for the NL West title in 2021 before missing the playoffs the last two seasons.
The 33-year-old Nakken, a softball star at Sacramento State from 2009-2012, has been a coach on the Giants staff since Kapler hired her in January 2020.
