Boston Red Sox spark controversy after putting on pre-game drag show for Pride Day

Fenway Park's annual Pride Night has been heavily criticized online in the days since a group of drag queens were welcomed on the field in Boston before the Red Sox hosted the Tampa Bay Rays.

'Gross' and 'disgusting' were just two of the judgements posted on X, where many others joined in the attack.

'Be more like the @Rangers,' another added, referring to the only Major League Baseball team without a Pride Month celebration.

Several commenters questioned the logic behind MLB events aimed at including LBGTQ+ fans, arguing they're not really baseball's target audience. However, a 2021 survey by the Sociology of Sport Journal found that 30 percent of gay men and 40 percent of lesbians were passionate sports fans, while many others followed sports casually.

Boston's Pride Day differed from other MLB clubs in that the Red Sox invited fans to arrive early for a drag show on the concourse at Fenway Park.

I keep wanting to like and enjoy MLB. But, sadly, I guess I’ll have to find another sport hasn’t yet kowtowed to the dykes and fairies.

What are they so proud about? Seems to me it must be about a subject that it would be better not to talk about in a public setting.

This madness does nothing but RUIN everything it touches

Baseball used to at least TRY to appear to be wholesome

Now they’re doing the Devil’s work each June

Fans should QUIT going - ESPECIALLY in June

destroys and corrupts

The Enemy comes to Steal, Kill and Destroy

And to pervert that which God hath ordained

like marriage - hence

Alvin Lee and Ten Years After were prophetic
