The York Revolution, a minor league baseball team in Pennsylvania, cancels its Pride Night game and forfeits the event after several players refuse to wear the team’s Pride-themed rainbow uniforms. NBC News reports that the team declines to play the scheduled Pride Night game and instead opts to forfeit when players do not agree to wear the requested rainbow attire. Yahoo Sports similarly says that following players’ refusal to wear the Pride Night jerseys, the team forfeits the annual game rather than proceed under the Pride Night uniform requirements. Both outlets describe the decision as being prompted by the players’ refusal to wear rainbow jerseys. The accounts focus on the sequence of events—players declining the uniform, the team’s subsequent decision to forfeit or cancel the game, and the Pride Night framing of the event—without detailing further statements from league officials, the players involved, or any additional disciplinary or administrative actions.
