The Los Angeles Dodgers experienced a significant lesson last year when their choice to recognize the anti-Catholic drag group “Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence” at a pride night event faced considerable backlash and resulted in a notably vacant stadium. This contentious decision not only estranged fans but also incited a large protest by Christians outside the stadium, underscoring the increasing belief that “woke” politics should not be part of America’s pastime.

Christian recording artist Sean Feucht posted alarming footage of the sparsely populated game on X (formerly Twitter), stating: “BREAKING: I have never seen @Dodgers stadium so vacant while they pay tribute to the demonic! Meanwhile, thousands of believers are protesting outside! The message from America has been unmistakably conveyed once more: YOU GO WOKE, YOU GO BROKE!”

The disappointing turnout, even during what was expected to be a highly anticipated rivalry match, served as clear evidence of fan discontent. Feucht subsequently shared an update from the sixth inning, remarking, “More attendees but still quite dismal for one of the most significant rivalries in sports. #GoWokeGoBroke.”

The Dodgers’ choice to honor the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a group infamous for ridiculing Catholicism and Christianity, incited outrage among the faithful. Washington Nationals pitcher Jake Treinen, a committed Catholic, openly criticized the Dodgers and called for a boycott.
