MLB isn’t as American as apple pie anymore. On Monday, June 2. 2025, The Daily Wire published this disturbing headline, “Doubling Down: 29 Of MLB’s 30 Teams Celebrate ‘Pride Month’.”
In what some expected to be a tamed-down “Pride Month” this year due to companies and organizations ditching diversity, equity, and inclusion goals, the MLB is going all in on LGBT festivities.
While the list of MLB teams promoting “Pride Month” on social media has grown smaller from 2024 to 2025, 29 of the 30 teams in the league will still celebrate the LGBT lifestyle with a “Pride Night” this month. From Atlanta and Kansas City to Cleveland and Phoenix, “Pride Nights” are coming to nearly every major league ballpark as every team in the MLB, except the Texas Rangers, has scheduled an LGBT celebration during the month of June.
The Seattle Mariners will host two “Pride Night” events, the first on June 4 vs. the Baltimore Orioles and the second on June 13 vs. the Cleveland Guardians. The team writes on its website, “We have two amazing Pride Themed Ticket Specials on deck this season – don’t miss your chance to score a Belt Bag on June 4 and Stanley-style Tumbler on June 13. Plus, each night, $5 of every ticket sold will benefit the GSBA [an LGBTQ+ chamber of commerce] Scholarship Fund and Seattle Pride, respectively.”
The Atlanta Braves, meanwhile, are hosting a “Pride Night” on June 3 vs. the Arizona Diamondbacks, which includes “a pregame party” and “a Braves Pride t-shirt.”
At the historic Fenway Park in Boston, the Red Sox will celebrate “Pride Month” against the Tampa Bay Rays on June 9. At the game, fans will have the option to purchase a Red Sox “Pride” hat. The Colorado Rockies, who currently hold the worst record in the MLB, will host a “Pride Night” on June 6 vs. the New York Mets, where “a portion of each ticket package sold will benefit The Center on Colfax, Colorado’s largest LGBTQIA+ resource and community center, and One Colorado, the state’s leading advocacy organization for LGBTQIA+ rights.”
“This is disturbing to say the least, but there’s even something more disturbing than 29 of 30 baseball teams celebrating what God has clearly stated in the Bible as a sin.” said Thomas Robb, National Director of the Knights Party of the Ku Klux Klan, and Pastor of the Christian Revival Center, both located centrally in Harrison, Arkansas. “I ask myself how MLB draws any crowds during Pride Month when under 8% of America’s population identify as homosexual? Here’s the real disturbing part, people can’t seem to let go of the corrupted Pro Sports of today. How hard is it to turn off the TV on game day? Or not to buy tickets to watch overpaid enemies of God make fools not only of themselves, but to anyone watching them? Here’s a good one, why would you pay hard earned money to buy a jersey of your so-called hero? People claim to be against miscegenation and homosexuality except when it comes to Pro Sports. Open your eyes! Your heroes are Anti-America, and Anti-God! Yet every game day you sit in front of your TV’s wearing your prized jersey of whoever your so-called hero is, cheering on people who support both miscegenation, and homosexuality. The two biggest sins recorded in the Bible. No wonder America is in the shape it’s in. God’s chosen people have become too weak to turn their backs on sin just to feel ‘good’ watching a stupid game.”
