I just thank god Grandma Savoy isn't alive to see this. She supported the #Oakland A's until she died in 1992. It would break her heart to see what's happening now. 
Fuck #JohnFisher
Fuck #RobManfred
May they all rot in hell!
The #Dodgers '#Caved' to #FarRight #Homophobes, Says #SisterRoma.
After outcry from the #CatholicLeague and Sen. #MarcoRubio — who called the Sisters an “#antiCatholic #group” in a letter to #MajorLeagueBaseball #Commissioner #RobManfred — the Dodgers were formally disinviting the Sisters from their 10th annual #PrideNight, and rescinding a #CommunityHero #Award to the group due to “the strong feelings of people who have been offended.”

2/2 justices were given lifetime appointments! Are #mlb #umpires impervious to being fired too? How has he kept his job for 3 decades? & AFTER he sued MLB for - doing 1 of VERY FEW good things they have in almost a decade now (As an AL girl I like the DH & Im curious to see how/if robo umps work in AAA) but 2 be clear I VEHEMENTLY DISLIKE & have 0 faith in #RobManfred - I kinda miss Bud (I know! 
) What is unclear 2 me is this: It feels like that MLB umps get lifetime job security! How? Why?
