ESPN's Buster Olney is reporting that Ridgewood HS grad Kim Ng could be the first woman to break the glass ceiling in baseball.

According to Olney, the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim will be interviewing Ng, 42, for the General Manager's position after the departure of Tony Reagins a few weeks ago.

Ng currently serves as MLB's vice president for baseball operations and has previously been the Assistant GM of the Los Angeles Dodgers and the New York Yankees, where she was part of the brain trust that brought multiple titles to New York in the last great Yankee dynasty.

Angels owner Arte Moreno told The OC Register, "I think you want a good baseball man – or I should say baseball person because there are some qualified women out there – because you want to be able to evaluate talent."

The daughter of a financial analyst and a banker, the 1986 RHS grad was a high school softball star. She was inducted as a Distinguished Alumni in 2008. After obtaining a public policy degree from the University of Chicago, Ng moved up the ladder and broke into baseball as an intern with the Chicago White Sox in 1991.

She has twice previously been considered for General Manager jobs, in San Diego and Seattle, only to be turned down.

Still, Ng is regarded by baseball insiders as the most likely to break the gender barrier due to her rare understanding of finances and player values, along with a strong reputation as a hard-worker.

When Ng will have her interview is not yet clear, Olney reported.
