Former New York Yankee Mariano Rivera, the undisputed greatest closer in baseball history, was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame on Sunday.

The Daily Beast’s chief evidence for Rivera’s sinister “far-right” views?
1. He’s an outspoken Christian.
2. He’s friends with Donald Trump.
3. He likes Israel too much.
Nailed him!
The article blasts the Panama-born pitcher for having “served at the pleasure of a racist president” and “taken part in thinly veiled propaganda on behalf of a far-right government in Israel.”
Rivera, apparently unaware that accusations of racism-by-association are supposed to be enough to end a man in this day and age, went on Fox News’ “Fox and Friends” on Wednesday to defend himself.

The only thing I would disagree with Mariano is that he supports that racist and apartheid regime in Tel Aviv. Yes I know they have moved the capital to Jerusalem.
