Jessica Mendoza did an interview with ABC News and was asked about being insulted on Twitter by CBS Radio Atlanta's Mike Bell. Here's what she said: "Just before I was going to click on it I thought, you know, why? Why even give it the attention? I didn't even open it, so I have actually yet to read it. To me it was really about the fact that he attacked me because I'm a woman. Being able to call these baseball games - yes, I'm a female, but I want it to get to the point where we think about what I'm saying and doing and not so much about the sex that I am." Bell apologized for his tweets. Mendoza says she accepted the apology.
