Former President Donald Trump called for people to boycott Major League Baseball (MLB) on Friday night after the league caved to pressure from leftists to cancel the All Star Game, which was scheduled to take place in Atlanta, after Georgia passed a law to tighten up voting security around the state.
Trump’s statement comes after MLB Commissioner Robert D. Manfred, Jr. announced earlier in the day that the league was moving both All-Star Game and MLB Draft to a new host city following a misleading pressure campaign from leftists about the state’s new laws.
“Baseball is already losing tremendous numbers of fans, and now they leave Atlanta with their All-Star Game because

Already on it, boss. Letter written to the marketing dept. of my 'home' team letting them know that I'd not be buying the tickets I'd planned nor watching them on TV.

I would, but I stopped watching MLB in 1981 after the second strike.

Sorry, President Trump, I don't boycott anything.
A boycott indicates a temporary stoppage of something. Once you lose me, I am gone permanently. If the NFL apologized for all the "woke" idiocy for the last few years, and fired anyone who ever knelt during the anthem, I still wouldn't have any desire to go back.
MLB lost me with all their new-found "wokeness" last year. So I stopped watching them then, and have no intention of ever going back.
But I hope the rest of you will head his request. Hit them in the wallet. It's the only thing they will understand!!!

Most baseball fans go to or watch baseball games to get away from and forget depressing factors like partisan politics. Baseball is making a big mistake getting involved in politics, as that is a sure way to loose about half their fans, as baseball fans now know that baseball caved in to Biden and the leftist Democrats.

Boycott? Nope. Too temporary.
This 57-year-old lifelong Dodgers fan -- honestly well within the top 10 percent of baseball fans in numerous categories including: knowledge of both Dodgers and general baseball history; enthusiasm and creator of fan noise; number of unique cheers created (together with my brother and uncle, approximately 65); games attended (about 500); and writer of Dodgers parody songs including the classic James Loney Song (think of Oscar Mayer baloney) is PERMANENTLY OUT!
Goodbye, MLB.
On a brighter note, I don't think T-Ball has been politicized yet.

I'm very glad to hear that Trump came out with this statement. It's well past time to push back against the Woke Nazis. Keep punishing Major League Baseball until it hurts them big time.

It strikes me as a pretty convenient excuse for MLB to leave, in what was bound to be clown show anyway. Stacy Abrams was already starting the shakedown/extortion of MLB I am sure.

Major League Baseball, National Football League, National Basketball Association. Boycott them all. Throw in Coca-Cola, Delta Airlines and American Airlines for good measure. MLB came out in support of Biden’s request on Good Friday of all days; Commies really, really hate US.

What's baseball? Go woke, go broke. Haven't watched any in years.
NBA got woke, went broke. Haven't watched basketball for even longer.
Football lost me with Colon Kaepernick's kneeling. I'm glad I got to go to a 49er's game long before Colon.
I have a lot more time to be productive now.

MLB you are stuck on stupid. I won't watch anymore. I want the States with MLB teams to pass legislation to eliminate any tax breaks for the teams, stadiums, including MLB contracts with TV. Make them pay hurt them financially. Only way they will learn to get the hell out of politics is to destroy. their bottom line.

I guess this a good time of the year to , once again, remind everyone that the average game of baseball (2-3 hrs) contains 7 minutes of action, including the windup and the pitch.

Yep, already boycotted all major league sports more than a year ago. I would watch ice hockey if I found it interesting.

#5 Lifelong Dodger fan. If you add 50cents to all of that knowledge you’ve wasted your time learning, you might be able to get a cup of coffee. Unless of course, you go to Starbucks where you’ll pay much more.

Ah, the shadow of Stacy Abrams falls over MLB and they fold. And that's one big shadow. Stacey Abrams has a shadow so big that it covers Atlanta. Screw MLB, the NFL and the NBA. It works both ways, don't watch their games and don't buy their jerseys. Got ot..

The last sport I clung to was my favorite, MLB then the kneeling began last year and I turned them off. The NFL has been gone for five seasons, never watched NBA, NASCAR never along with other nothing sports. I do like boxing and college sports that is until they take a knee this will include high school ball games down to Little league too. I'm done along with businesses who become woke too many to mention. I'm an American first I didn't spend my early youth in a uniform defending America for this to happen. Next war let the 'woke' fight it my sons and grandsons aren't going to go. President Trump is right stand up and fight back.

It's a shame. Baseball starting up in the spring is like spring itself. Everything is new, and summer is just around the corner. It reminds me of my father and uncles who coached little league and we would go to games a several times a year. Just as there is no crying in baseball, there should be no politics in baseball. Politics ruin everything.
