I gave up MLB when it went anti-Trump, but this guy is an idiot. We’ve had non-English-speaking players for at least the last four decades, and half the English speakers couldn’t speak English either. It’s what’s on the field that matters, not what’s on the mic.
Way longer than that, actually. There’s a famous story about Richie Ashburn from the ‘60s and how he’d collide with a Venezuelan shortstop until he learned that “Yo la tengo” meant “I got it”.
I don’t think Daffy or Dizzy Dean spoke English? And what language was it that Casey Stengel spoke?
