We’re nearly at the halfway point of June, which means we’re halfway through Pride month.
Yeah, it’s Pride month. Haven’t you heard?! It’s only been all over Major League Baseball these past few weeks.
Some teams celebrated the month with a typical PR social media post. Others, like the Dodgers, celebrated it by wearing rainbow hats last weekend. Others, like the Texas Rangers, didn’t acknowledge it at all and instead are having a “Faith and Family Night” next week.
And that brings us to the San Francisco Giants, which held their obligatory Pride Night on Friday by having 10 gay couples renew their vows in a pregame ceremony that included having a drag queen along the first base line.

Naturally, the Giants then lost to the Cubs, 5-1, falling to 28-42 and a healthy 16 games out of first place in the NL West.
What a scene:
Goodness gracious. I don’t even know where to begin. It’s just stunning. What do you think Tony Vitello was thinking during that? Honestly.
You think that stuff went on before a big game in Knoxville? Come on. He must be so angry at himself for leaving Tennessee. Lord knows I would be.
Look, I’m pretty numb to all of it at this point. I’ve done this so many times before, it just bounces off me like rubber bullets. This ain’t my first June. We do this every year.
But renewing wedding vows on the field before a baseball game is a new level of virtue-signaling that I didn’t think existed. Shame on me. I should’ve known better. Never doubt the left! Never let your guard down with them.

You give ’em an inch, and they’ll take a mile!
Par for the course, I reckon. Again, do whatever you want on your own time. It doesn’t matter. But is it really necessary to have 10 gay couples renew their vows before first pitch, and then put them all on the outfield jumbotron for the big kiss?
Come on. Can’t we just play baseball and be normal? We don’t need to virtue-signal all the time. I promise. We don’t. It’s OK to take your foot off the gas every now and then. We won’t tell anyone!
Oh well. Again, I’m numb to it. Usually I let these things slide.
This was a bit much.
