Texas Baseball Teams Ridiculed For Resisting Pride Night Events This Year

March 30th, 2019 5:00 PM

The capture of the sport of baseball by LGBT pressure groups is nearly complete. To the delight of Outsports, an SB Nation blog pushing the LGBT agenda, all but two Major League Baseball teams are inviting you to take yourself out to the Pride Night ball game this season. And those two teams from a conservative state are getting ridiculed.

"Put it in the books! March 28, 2019 is not only the earliest opening day in major league baseball history, but it marks the first season that all but two MLB clubs are celebrating LGBTQ pride: the Houston Astros and Texas Rangers," raves Outsports' writer Dawn Ennis. "If you’re keeping score at home, mark your programs Texas 0-2, Everybody Else 28 for 28."

Back in 2001, the Chicago Cubs were the first major league baseball organization to throw the LGBT agenda in their fans' faces. Now they'll subject their fans to two games of “Out at Wrigley.”

Two new teams joining LGBT mania this season are the Angels and Yankees. The Angels are holding Pride Night on June 25.

MLB’s vice president for social responsibility and inclusion, the gay Billy Bean, says the Yanks are going big. The team will hold LGBTQ community-themed commemorations during the 2019 season, including the Yankees-Stonewall Scholars Initiative, a scholarship program aimed at commemorating this summer’s 50th anniversary of the Stonewall riots.

“To celebrate the achievements of New York City Public School graduating seniors” the Yankees will memorialize a violent 1969 demonstration by gays, who forced police officers to barricade themselves inside the Stonewall Inn bar for their own safety. Five students, one from each borough of New York City, will receive a $10,000 college scholarship from the Yankees’ in June.

The last two holdouts against the LGBT movement sweeping baseball are the two teams in Red State Texas, the Houston Astros and Texas Rangers. The Astros won't get off scot-free, though because their July 26th visit to St. Louis will be marked by Pride Night. Both teams have held one pride event previously, but quickly stopped doing so.

Attending a pride event at a major league stadium isn't just a casual thing, either. The LGBT theme is in-your-face pervasive, as seen in Outsports photos displaying imagery throughout stadiums in San Francisco and New York. The giant video screens feature same-sex partners kissing, too.

Forcing the LGBT theme on baseball fans (whether they want it or not) isn't reserved just for the ballpark, either. With the purchase of Pride Night tickets, fans at some parks have received rainbow-themed baseball hats and other items to take home with them as reminders of the "celebration" of the LGBT lifestyle.

An SB Nation post in 2017 said any addition to pride events should be "celebrated."
