MLB says warning Christian players was a mistake — but confirms 2 teams are allowed to push Pride propaganda
Major League Baseball says it was wrong to issue warnings to San Francisco Giants players who wrote Bible verses on their caps.Specifically, Giants pitchers Landen Roupp, JT Brubaker, and Ryan Walker were threatened with discipline after writing different forms of Genesis 9:12-16 on team caps that support transgenderism and other sexualities, with the league citing violations of its uniform policy.'The players were neither fined nor disciplined, nor will they ever be.'Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) had sent a letter to the MLB on June 16 calling out the league for promoting Black Lives Matter in 2020 and becoming a "billboard" for political messaging, yet still issuing a warning to the Giants pitchers last week.MLB Commissioner Robert Manfred responded to Hawley on Monday, who posted the letter online for all to see. In the text, Manfred revealed that the Giants' communication with players was "inadequate and not clear" regarding their option to wear Pride hats. He claimed that some players did not understand they had the option to wear the normal Giants cap instead.The commissioner's office said "unfortunately" it issued a "routine oral warning" before it became aware of the Giants' "lapse in communication."Players "should not be compelled to participate in a celebratory event ... if such participation would violate their sincere religious beliefs or values," Manfred told Hawley.The MLB boss later confirmed, "The players were neither fined nor disciplined, nor will they ever be."RELATED: SF Giants commentator compares gays to black people as 'oppressed' minority following Christian protest In the same letter, Manfred revealed that only two teams are permitted to wear special gay-themed hats in games: the Giants and the Los Angeles Dodgers.Despite the league saying in 2023 that it would not permit clubs to utilize unauthorized hats, the clubs submitted special requests to have their Pride hats grandfathered in, and their requests were granted.These "Pride Night" hats were justified by Manfred, who claimed it was because the cities have "some of the largest LGBTQ communities in the United States."However, players are not required to wear them, as he previously stated.RELATED: 'He's my idol': Texas Rangers Father's Day celebration will bring you to tears Andy Kuno/San Francisco Giants/Getty Images The commissioner cited other "faith/religious-related games" and nights that "celebrate different ethnicities or nationalities" at MLB ballparks and said that the league "does not regulate these events, but also does not permit Clubs or players to utilize special uniforms/equipment for such games, or alter the uniform or equipment."However, for 12 league-wide events, MLB teams are mandated by the head office to alter their uniforms. Those days are:Mother's Day, Father's Day, Armed Forces Weekend, Play Ball Weekend, Memorial Day, Lou Gehrig Day, Independence Day, Hall of Fame Weekend, Childhood Cancer Awareness Day, September 11th, Jackie Robinson Day, and Roberto Clemente Day.Manfred said the league has had "no significant complaints from fans or players for those days."Like Blaze News?

Report reveals what started Trump's feud with Italian pal: 'She doesn't see this as petty'
President Donald Trump had a very public falling out last week with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, but the rupture had been building for months.Trump told an Italian journalist that Meloni had "begged" him for a photo at the recent G7 summit in France — a claim Meloni called "totally invented" – and a political scientist at a university in Rome explained to the Financial Times that the president's claims are “totally unacceptable” to the nationalist prime minister who presents herself as the defender of "Italy’s honor and interests."“This attack was personal, implying a lack of dignity,” said Giovanni Orsina, of Luiss University. “But she does not see this as some petty personal issue. It’s a matter of honor, and honor for a nationalist is political.""It’s as if he slighted the Italian flag somehow,” Orsina added.Meloni had been Trump's most reliable European ally — the only EU leader to attend his second-term inauguration, and the recipient of some of his most effusive praise. He called her "a fantastic woman" and "one of the real leaders of the world." Vice President JD Vance wrote the foreword to her second book, and Trump promoted the English translation of her memoir, with a foreword from his son.Now, that relationship has collapsed into a public war of words, and the breakdown traces back to a series of decisions Trump made that left Meloni with no room to maintain her loyalty.Trump's tariffs on the EU hit Italian exporters directly, straining the relationship's economic benefits even as Meloni stayed publicly loyal. The deeper damage came with the U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran, which sent energy prices surging and hurt Italian consumers. Rome quietly refused to let U.S. military aircraft refuel at Sicilian air bases — a rare act of distancing that Trump did not let go unanswered, later saying he was "shocked" by Meloni and that she "lacked courage."The U.S. president deepened the rift further by attacking Pope Leo XIV, a vocal critic of the Iran war, calling him "terrible." Meloni, breaking her usual restraint, called the comment "unacceptable" — a notable departure for a leader who had avoided criticizing Trump even over the war itself.Trump then escalated again, accusing Meloni on Truth Social of wanting to reconcile only to boost her sagging approval ratings, writing "No thanks!!!" Meloni shot back, suggesting their friendship had cost her politically: "Being your friend certainly has not helped it."Analysts say Trump's repeated public jabs left Meloni little choice but to respond, particularly as his standing in Europe — even among the right — sinks to an all-time low.“Trump is electorally toxic in Europe, even on the right,” said Stefano Stefanini, Italy’s former ambassador to NATO. “Being in an anti-Trump camp now can bring her some electoral benefits.” Meloni's international policy is unpopular at home, and pollster Lorenzo Pregliasco said she had little to lose by cutting ties with Trump."[Trump is] now kryptonite in terms of public opinion and popularity," Pregliasco said. “She stayed very close to him even after many realized that Trump was pursuing an agenda that was not aligned with our European and Italian interests. Now it appears more like Trump repudiated her rather than the other way around.”
