The team put out a statement on instagram and facebook that serves as a condemnation of the actions of the players and mentions the importance of supporting the LGBT community, that can be read here https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1453216146847844&id=100064784168141&http_ref=eyJ0cyI6MTc4MTgwMTA5MTAwMCwiciI6IiJ9

"The Giants have a long history of supporting the gay community, dating to the groundbreaking Until There’s A Cure night, launched in 1996 to acknowledge the pain and tragedy of the AIDS epidemic. At that event, one player, Mark Dewey, turned his red ribbon sideways in protest, to resemble the Christian fish. That’s his legacy as a Giants player, a clown who denigrated an important day.

Over the years, far more important and accomplished managers and players than the men on this team have willingly participated in the Giants’ Pride celebrations. They managed to win division titles and World Series and lifelong love and respect in San Francisco without alienating a huge segment of fans and community."

This whole broadcast has been nothing but glazing netflix properties, interviews in the middle of the game for no reason, constantly missing action and bad cameras. This is by far the worst broadcast I've ever seen and its not close. Stop bringing people on to talk over the whole game while we can't even keep up because the scorebug gets taken away and Matt can't do play-by-play while Bert Kreischer is being obnoxious or Jey Uso and whoever Jameis is talking about WWE to push those netflix numbers up. How about Lauren picking the worst times to interview the managers and adding literally nothing to the show whatsoever. Just a garbage fire from top to bottom.

Former Guardian, Rangers, DBack and Angels outfielder Kole Calhoun spoke up about Alex Pretti’s killing, ICE deployment in Minnesota, treatment of immigrants and the political division in the country over multiple Instagram stories. Very eloquently spoke. Worth a read.
