Major League Baseball has caved after multiple players revolted against a Bud Light-like stunt for Pride month.
MLB has responded by quietly removing the LGBTQ+ Pride logo from its Twitter account.
Clay Travis said: “MLB players are revolting — some publicly, many privately — over the Dodgers honoring an anti-Catholic group.”
As Slay News reported earlier, MLB stars Trevor Williams and Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Blake Treinen called out the league for inviting the anti-Catholic group, The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, to an event.
Treinen said, “I am disappointed to see the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence being honored as heroes at Dodger Stadium.
“Many of their performances are blasphemous, and their work only displays hate and mockery of Catholics and the Christian faith.
“I understand that playing baseball is a privilege and not a right.
“My convictions in Jesus Christ will always come first.
“Since I have been with the Dodgers they have been at the forefront of supporting a wide variety of groups.
“However, inviting the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence to perform disenfranchises a large community and promotes hate of Christians and people of faith.
“This single event alienates the fans and supporters of the Dodgers, Major League Baseball, and professional sports.
“People like baseball for its entertainment value and competition.
“The fans do not want propaganda or politics forced on them.
“The debacle with Bud Light and Target should be a warning to companies and professional sports to stay true to their brand and leave the propaganda and politics off the field.
“I believe Jesus Christ died on the cross for my sins.
“I believe the word of God is true, and in Galatians 6:7 it says, ‘Do not be deceived, God cannot be mocked; a man reaps what he sows.’
“This group openly mocks Jesus Christ, the cornerstone of my faith, and I want to make it clear that I do not agree with nor support the decision of the Dodgers’ to ‘honor’ the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.
“This group openly mocks Jesus Christ, the cornerstone of my faith, and I want to make it clear that I do not agree with nor support the decision of the Dodgers’ to ‘honor’ the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.
“’But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.’ Joshua 24:15,” Treinen concluded,

MLB pitcher Trevor Williams said:
“To invite and honor a group that makes a blatant and deeply offensive mockery of my religion, and the religion of over 4 million people in LA county alone, undermines the values of respect and inclusivity that should be upheld by any organization.
“Creating an environment where one group feels celebrated and honored at the expense of another is counterproductive and wrong.
“It is a clear violation of the Dodgers’ discrimination policy, which explicitly states that any conduct or attire at the ballpark that is deemed to be indecent or prejudiced against any particular group (or religion) is not tolerated.”
