Los Angeles Dodgers reliever Blake Treinen stood alone as the only player not wearing a rainbow Pride hat during the team’s Pride Night game on June 5-6, 2026. While the rest of the squad celebrated LGBTQ+ activism in the ninth inning, Treinen stayed true to his Christian convictions and skipped the virtue signal.Predictably, the tolerance police are now calling for fines and a suspension. Treinen, who has publicly opposed the Dodgers’ past Pride stunts before, once again refused to bow to political pressure on the field.This isn’t about inclusion. It’s about coercion. Professional athletes are paid to pitch, hit, and field, not to endorse every progressive cause the front office pushes. Treinen’s quiet stand exposes the hypocrisy of a league that preaches diversity but punishes anyone who dares to opt out. Good for him for drawing the line.
