Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier blasted Major League Baseball on Tuesday morning after Commissioner Robert Manfred doubled down on its restriction of faith messages on team uniforms.
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.
