Getting a hot dog, wearing your team's cap or jersey, and maybe even waving one of their flags, all add to the atmosphere of fun. In addition, MLB teams often host special days or nights with souvenir giveaways for their fans.

But I ask you; what does celebrating a person's sexual preference have to do with the game of baseball?

Apparently, I'm not alone in that query, as once again MLB's Texas Rangers are forgoing any celebration of so-called "pride month" this year.

They are alone in that the Rangers are the ONLY MLB team that is not holding any "pride" events or flying any "pride" or "progress" flags, or wearing them on their uniforms.

Kudos to the management of the Texas Rangers!

I can only imagine the pressure coming against them, year after year, to give in to the fierce LGBTQ++++++ community.

In years past, the only statement issued, according to the AP, is one that is inclusive of all people:

"Our longstanding commitment remains the same: To make everyone feel welcome and included in Rangers baseball—in our ballpark, at every game, and in all we do—for both our fans and our employees. We deliver on that promise across our many programs to have a positive impact across our entire community."

I've requested a statement from the Rangers pertaining to this year, but have not heard back from them, by the time of this publication.

According to a report by the Dallas Express, the first "pride" night in the history of MLB was held in 2001 in the Chicago Cubs' stadium. 

The Dallas Express article notes that in 2003, the Texas Rangers extended official invites to various LGBTQ groups during one game, but that the actions brought protesters outside the stadium for its duration.

While the Rangers haven't ever hosted any official "pride" nights, they actually have reached out to the LGBTQ community in helping to "sponsor the NAGAAA Gay Softball World Series in 2022," and in working with the "Pegasus Slow-Pitch Softball Association," promoting amateur softball, according to the Dallas Express report.

But, by not entertaining any "pride" nights, the Texas Rangers are keeping baseball in Arlington about the game.

And importantly, they are avoiding the exposure of young fans to strange displays of sexual deviance by drag queens such as the "Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence" (dressed as nuns), whom the LA Dodgers hosted in a previous "pride" event in 2023.

I'm thankful that the Texas Rangers management is still standing strong for what really matters when it comes to MLB: playing baseball.

I bet the Rangers' management would appreciate any encouragement their fans would like to give regarding their decision. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
