A professional baseball team in Pennsylvania will be forfeiting a game on Thursday that was scheduled to be the team's Pride Night after players refused to wear LGBTQ-themed jerseys, the team announced.
The York Revolution of the Atlantic League, the same league where Trevor Bauer currently plays, said the decision "was not reached lightly" in announcing the forfeit to the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs on Wednesday.
The team was not afraid to throw its players under the bus in a rather scathing statement, saying it was "deeply troubled and profoundly disappointed by the decisions of these few players."
"To be clear; this action by the players is completely inconsistent with our vision as the Most Welcoming Place in York," the team's statement continued.
The jerseys, which would have been worn on the team's 11th annual Pride Night, had rainbow sleeves.
The team announced it would be making a $10,000 donation to the Rainbow Rose Center "as a small token of our regret for the last-minute change of plans and support for our LGBTQIA+ representing partners … to support and further their work in making sure the York community is as inclusive as we strive to make WellSpan Park in York, Pennsylvania.""To be clear; this action by the players is completely inconsistent with our vision as the Most Welcoming Place in York," the team's statement continued.

Despite no game being played, the Revolution will still hold a "free and fun celebration of recognition and inclusion" on Thursday and offer exchanges for any remaining 2026 regular-season home game, subject to availability.
The team did not immediately respond to an email asking who the players were, whether the players would speak to Fox News and whether there would be further punishment for the players.
