Brewers aren’t playing; it’s official
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
"In our sundown perambulations of late, through the outer parts of Brooklyn, we have observed several parties of youngsters playing 'base', a certain game of ball. Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our close rooms, the game of ball is glorious"
-Walt Whitman
The Reds agreed to sit out to avoid a forfeit situation, but it's not like they had a choice in the matter.
As an organization, it's your only move.
They better not make us play a DH tomorrow..
Word is that talk of boycotting is spreading around the league, especially in Seattle who has the most Black players of any team.

I hope the reds win their next game whenever that might be

#Brewers union rep Brent Suter on decision not to play game tonight: "Our team and the Reds felt that with our community and our nation in such pain, tonight we wanted 100% of the focus to be on issues that are much more important than baseball."

It's all good. I'll be here when they decide to take the field again. Have a good night everyone.
