We're witnessing very desperate acts of a multi-billion dollar industry that's had declining revenues for years now. This latest virtue skidding is just an attempt to stem the decline.

They're quite sick because they're perpetuating a lie against individuals and groups of people for money.

How bigoted of them...after all Jackie Robinson worked for.

“This latest virtue skidding is just an attempt to stem the decline.”

Precisely and it will have the absolute opposite effect. The average baseball fan demographics are moderately conservative beer drinking 30, 40, and 50 year old’s who our pro 2nd ammendment, lean libertarian but have an abiding respect for the traditional and despise the mixing of politics with their beloved sport.

It will start with pay to watch premium packages, then season ticket sales and trickle down to overall stadium attendance. They’re cutting their own throat.

Baseball had already gone full on PC before this. Every week the teams seem to be promoting various causes and engaging in virtue signalling. It even extends down into the minor leagues which will also suffer from the parent teams’ insults to fans.
