Uthmeier announced a formal probe into the MLB and issued a subpoena last week after San Francisco Giants pitchers were threatened for wearing Bible verses on their Pride Night hats. The MLB is also under investigation by the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.As The Gateway Pundit reported, Major League Baseball Commissioner Robert Manfred responded to a letter from Senator Josh Hawley, saying that “the players were neither fined nor disciplined, nor will they ever be.”Hawley celebrated a win, falsely claiming Manfred “admits they were wrong to threaten the Giants players over Bible verses and promises never to fine or discipline these players – or any players for their religious beliefs.” But he ignored what Manfred actually wrote.There was no mea culpa. Instead, he blamed a “lapse in communication” for the players wearing Bible verses on their hats, while still maintaining it was a violation of MLB rules. Manfred said, “The players were neither fined nor disciplined, nor will they ever be,” with reference to the one incident.However, he made it clear that they will be punished for taking future stands, while admitting that the MLB engages in content-based restrictions on speech, permitting exceptions to its rules for pro-gay-pride alterations to uniforms but drawing a line at faith-based alterations.While clubs are “permitted to” host “faith/religious-related games,” they may not “utilize special uniforms/equipment for such games,” Manfred said. But when it comes to Pride Night games, a special exception is made to show “appreciation and support” for the LGBTQ community.MORE:JUST IN: MLB Commissioner Responds to Senator Josh Hawley After Hawley Catches League in Double Standard/*!
