It’s June, which means the baseball world will be on edge for the next 25 days or so. A tradition unlike any other in this country!
For those who don’t know (and that’s none of you, because it’s everywhere), June is Pride Month. Haven’t you heard?!
You know in October when the NFL wears pink for a month? That’s June in Major League Baseball, except it’s rainbow hats and social media posts. And, of course, the Texas Rangers angering half the country because they don’t do any of it.
They’re having a “Faith & Family Night” June 18 instead, for those wondering. Incredible. Most based team in America, by a wide margin.
On the other side of the aisle, you have the Los Angeles Dodgers. Just to keep things balanced, they step up every year and really lean into things this month. Don’t forget, this was the team that hosted anti-Catholic drag nuns three years ago during this very month.
While they didn’t do that Friday night, the Dodgers did break out some pride hats for their game against the Angels.
Again, we do this every year with the Dodgers. I’m numb to it at this point. I also expect nothing less from any franchise located in California.
Is it a little much? Maybe. You wanna make a social media post? That’s probably fine. But now we’re having players wear the gear on during games? I don’t know.
Clayton Kershaw famously wrote a Bible verse next to his pride hat when he was on the team.
Anyway, we nearly had something similar last night with reliever Blake Treinen, who entered the game in the top of the ninth looking like it was just another day at the ballpark.
Treinen, by the way, is deeply religious and has been extremely open about his relationship with God. Don’t forget, last fall he honored Charlie Kirk with his hat, which went over about as well as you’d expect.
No idea if that played a role in this, or if he simply grabbed the wrong hat, but you can probably piece the two together.
Regardless, Treinen threw just one pitch, got out of the jam, and then Freddie Freeman walked it off in the bottom of the ninth.
See? How can you not be romantic about baseball?!
As for the Dodgers’ yearly Pride Night … like I said, I’m numb to it at this point. At least they didn’t have drag nuns this time.
There is still a lot of June left, though.
From Fox News
By “getting numb to it” is the most effective way to defeat this. Apathy can be a useful friend.
Defeating this will not happen overnight, but it will happen,
These people hate to be ignored..”Pride”,that they loudly scream, will be their undoing. Look what it did for Satan.
Eventually, they will turn on each other (they are doing it with trannies now).
We continue with constant prayer.
Even though the L.A. Dodgers have won the past two World Series Championships they are a poor excuse for an organization. Many children and young people watch baseball and promoting gay pride month is totally inexcusable. They are ruining America’s past time. Just to set the record straight June is the Month Of The Sacred Heart of Jesus. That’s what the Dodgers and the entire baseball and sports world should be celebrating in June. Friday June 12, 2026 is the Feast Day of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Sacred Heart of Jesus have mercy on us.
For sports organizations to celebrate June as Pride month, is a terrible thing for American families. Instead, all American sports should celebrate June as Traditiomal Marriage and Family Month for America. It also made me sick that the Bad Bunny is performing in Madrid at the same time as the Pope’s visit. And the performer said that he wants to meet the pope. He should not be allowed to make recordings or to perform. He is a degenerate influence on society, worldwide– destructive to young people. There should be high standards of professional quality for all performers, for what they present to the public, and standards of decency and morality. Young people need the best that their society can give them– not filth. The Pope should call Bad Bunny and similar performers to repentance of sin, and to follow Christ.
Reply to June is American Family Month: Although June is the Month of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, you make a valid suggestion. The traditional family of man and wife is what makes America great, Sister Lucia of Fatima said the final battle between Jesus and Satan will be over marriage and the family. Our Lady of Fatima protect the marriage between a man and women created by Almighty God and protect the family. A family that prays together stays together.
The June 18 event here in Texas takes place during their game against the Minnesota Twins and features post-game player testimonies on how faith impacts their lives. The Rangers receive criticism as they are the only MLB baseball team not celebrating gay pride. It is better to stand alone, than to fall with others.
As Chesterton once said, “A dead thing can go with the stream, but only a living thing can go against it.”
If y’all come down here for this game or the World Cup, we have separate restrooms for men and women here. You just decide on one. If you need help with that, the Catholic chaplain is a military veteran and probably has some helpful hints about how to look down and determine which restroom you should use.
Also, don’t be offended if someone calls you “sir” or “ma’am” or holds doors open for you. No offense is intended, even though your former US senator didn’t understand that those terms are signs of respect and used with superiors. But, please don’t California our Texas.
Reply to a Texas Catholic: Yes “sir” or “ma’am” I have a new found respect for the Texas Rangers and the State of Texas. It’s good to see that they are not using the Texas Rangers as a tool for indoctrination. God bless Texas and the Texas Rangers.
I celebrate traditional Father’s Day and the Sacred Heart of Jesus in June. June used to be called the month of traditional weddings. By the way, most multi-colored items are not rainbows and have no political significance at all. I would avoid six-colored rainbow flags for sure, but most multi-colored sun umbrellas are not really rainbows and are just multi-colored. We should find out first what the person using such items mean by them before we assume the worst. They may have no particular meaning to them at all.
