Major League Baseball has announced plans to stencil “Black Lives Matter†on the pitcher’s mound during opening week, beginning with the Washington Nationals and New York Yankees game on Thursday.
“The Nationals, in conjunction with Major League Baseball, stand with the Black Lives Matter movement and will utilize the platform and national stage of Opening Day to express support for the fight against systemic racism and injustice,†the team announced in a statement, according to ESPN.
MLB has reportedly given every team the OK to emulate the Nationals Black Lives Matter activism.
It was also reported that the league told players that they have permission to put social justice slogans on their jerseys in place of their names.
