I always loved the game of baseball. From the time my kids were young enough to play, I coached a team in a local organization until they went on to high school. I loved to take the kids down to the ball park on a nice summer evening and watch a game.  I watched the Pirates most evenings on tv or listened to them on the radio. I just loved the strategy of the game.
Since the MLB has allowed players to start kneeling during the National Anthem I have not watched one game.  We see players wearing black lives matter tee shirts, and patches, and repeating inane leftist talking points about America's systemic racism. The Georgia boycott was another. Teams have LGBQT days at ball parks. Players think its all about them. Wait until times become tough. Baseball and other sports will be the first to fall. They have ruined the game of baseball in many ways, and I'll never watch another game. 
Those people who will not be governed by God will be ruled by tyrants.    Wm. Penn

My Hometown had a semi pro Baseball team, and my Dad took us to most games. I also liked College and Pro foot ball. They should have kept it free from being political. I will never watch another Pro game of any kind that goes for the Olympics as well, and will stop watching college sports if they continue to follow the Pro's lead.

I don't care. The only pro sport I have less use for than baseball is basketball. I would rather watch weeds grow than watch either.
