The Baltimore Orioles pulled a questionable move on Pride Night, raising a few questions
MLB condemns ‘hypocrisy’ directed at Christian players
Kayleigh McEnany blasts Major League Baseball with allegations of hypocrisy, singling out Christian players while allowing other expressions. He cites San Francisco Giants players being warned with Bible verses on hats, compared to drag queens at the Dodgers stadium and “BLM” logos on pitcher’s mounds. Former MLB catcher Raffy Lopez joins in to discuss his support for players expressing their faith.
We had a double whammy in terms of Pride Night shenanigans surrounding Major League Baseball on Friday night.
June is quickly coming to an end, so this was the last call, if you will, for the teams that haven’t filled their quota of signals for the year.
Up in New York, the Mets celebrated the firing of their manager by holding their 2026 Pride Night, which came with its own set of problems. But I want to focus on the Baltimore Orioles, who went above and beyond on their big night.
The group announced earlier this week that they will have a drag queen on the field dousing the fans with water. That is not hyperbole. That’s exactly what happened on Friday night.
Check out:
Amazing.
There were also Furries roaming the stadium before the game – people dressed as giant animals roaming around as people – and Pride banners hanging from The Warehouse, where 2,131 Cal Ripken flags were flying.
They also depend on it. Big time. Alllllll the way to…
Except for the suspicious social media post before the game. The team announced its debut via Twitter (X), along with an attached photo he didn’t enter a real player only one time this season.
Instead, it showed a candy.
What a month for Major League Baseball
You’re not stealing that fastball, fans, Orioles! It’s good to try. Everyone is on high alert right now. It’s been a brutal month for Major League Baseball, and people are angry right now.
I don’t blame them.
The San Francisco Giants continue to be an absolute disaster in the west. The whole Pride night controversy started two weeks ago when four players wrote Bible verses on their rainbow hats, and it’s been a disaster ever since.
SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS GIANTS’ PRIDE NIGHT MESS HAS REACHED A BOILING CUT WITH A BITTER INTERVIEW FROM EXEC BUSTER POSEY

Rob Manfred blames the Giants for not communicating properly. The Giants take care of their LGBTQ fans and work their tails off. Senator Josh Hawley got the DOJ involved. Buster Posey looked caught in a press conference earlier this week, refusing to talk about it.
Be one a giant chaos.
But that didn’t stop the teams from teaming up on the moon, of course. For those wondering what a photo of the Orioles starting lineup looks like, here’s a sample:
The best I can say, the Pride Night photo was the first not to put a player on the moon, and that’s because the team chose to do a Star Wars-themed roll for two nights at the end of May.
Otherwise, almost all of the starters’ icons this season included a picture of the player, which is common across the league. The Orioles aren’t reinventing the wheel by doing that.

However, they are reinventing it by putting their bird mascot on the card for the first edition of Pride night. I’m sure that wasn’t random or accidental. The team does not simply run out of players to use for the drawing.
Do the players just say no? Did the team decide not to risk it? And, if so, why? Why lean on Pride night in the park with the queens spraying the kids with water and the Furries running around, but not on the roster card?
Don’t go in between. No sir. You’re either all the way in, or you’re all the way out.

Anyway, here are some Furries on the way out for those interested:
