Sounds like a fair trade. I won't play softball with these folks and gay scout masters can be excluded from the Boy Scouts.

Yeah, but will they allow switch hitters? (Apologies to the great Reggie Smith)

This is the stuff that the Ninth Circus concerns itself with.

Maybe it has something to do with their grip on the bat?

Two questions: 1) What heterosexual male wants to play in a homosexual league, and 2) what would the court decide were this a heterosexual league wanting to exclude homos?

How can you tell which one is the pitcher and which one is the catcher?

And we won’t talk about getting a base on balls.

So much for embracing diversity.
To: Dr. Sivana
Nope; just pitchers, catchers, and ballboys.
To: SoldierDad
I can only answer the first question: gays in the closet.
The second is moot, as anybody proposing such a thing would be jailed outright.
Certainly puts a different meaning to the guys piling on each other when they win the World Series, though.
To: artichokegrower
This would be hilarious if it weren’t so sad.

Only in SF. Who in their right mind would sue to get on a gay team. I revolt at the very thought of what you would have to do to try out for the team!!!!!!

What heterosexual male wants to play in a homosexual league I know. Seriously.
what would the court decide were this a heterosexual league wanting to exclude homos?
Oh it would be a hate crime for sure! Those hateful Heterosexuals!

The team with the straight players was from SF. The team who filed the injunction is not clarified in the report, but I believe they are from the Seattle area.

You won’t find me within miles of a gay softball league...
