The Toronto Blue Jays have cut pitcher Anthony Bass just over a week after he apologized for sharing a video on social media that encouraged Christians to boycott Bud Light and Target.
Bass did not comment on the video he shared, but later released an apology where he said he was sorry for the hurtful video.
I recognize yesterday I made a post that was hurtful to the Pride community, which includes friends of mine and close family members of mine. And I am truly sorry for that, he said in a video put out by the team.
I just spoke with my teammates and shared with them my actions yesterday. I apologized with [sic] them, and as of right now I am using the Blue Jays resources to better educate myself to make better decisions moving forward, he added. The ballpark is for everybody. We include all fans at the ballpark. We want to welcome everybody. Thats all I have to say.
