"MLB Players Who Wrote Bible Verses On Pride Night Hats Won't Be Disciplined, Commissioner Says: The response was characterized by Hawley as MLB admitting the league was "wrong to threaten the Giants players over Bible verses" Daily Caller
"Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Blake Treinen said Major League Baseball officials reprimanded him after he honored slain conservative leader Charlie Kirk on his hat last year.
"Treinen made the comments to the Los Angeles Times this week during an interview about the MLB's overall treatment of Christian players and its recent warning to several San Francisco Giants pitchers.
"The players were attacked last week after writing Bible verses on their LGBT “pride night” caps in a silent protest of the event, and now the Justice Department is involved.
The Giants wore “pride” hats with a rainbow-themed "SF" logo.
"Starting pitcher Landen Roupp and relievers J.T. Brubaker and Ryan Walker wrote a Bible verse on their hats to give the rainbow its proper context.
""Two Christian San Francisco Giants pitchers protested Pride Night on Friday night vs Chicago Starting pitcher Landen Roupp wrote Genesis 9:12-16 on his Pride hat
- Relief pitcher Sam Hentges refused to wear the hat at all (just like Blake Treinen) Well done, gentlemen" Jon Root
