Two Los Angeles Dodgers pitchers spoke out this week after the team announced it will honor an anti-Catholic LGBT group during a “pride night” event on June 16, coming in the midst of boycotts against brands.

The group, the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, is a self-described “leading-edge Order of queer and trans nuns” that has been criticized as being insulting and blasphemous against the Christian faith. Amid a growing public backlash, the group was later disinvited, but the Dodgers eventually reversed their earlier decision and allowed the group to come back.
