The Texas Rangers are the only team in the MLB (Major League Baseball) that will not have a Pride Night event in June, aka “LGBTQ+ Pride Month.”

The remaining 29 teams all have a Pride Night on their schedule for the month of June, as part of their respective theme night lineups.

The tradition of wearing Pride jerseys in baseball was started in 2001 by the Chicago Cubs.

The only two holdouts were both located in Texas. That is up until the Houston Astros sponsored a “Baseball is for Everyone” Pride Night versus the Texas Rangers in June 2021.

WFAA attempted to contact the Rangers in order to inquire about their status as the lone holdout.

In response, the club stated they are committed to ensuring all fans feel comfortable and involved in Rangers baseball. This applies in their ballpark, at each game, and in everything else they do — for their fans and staff.

They went on to say they keep that promise via all of the various programs they run to have a positive impact on the community as a whole.

Additionally, the Rangers mentioned the funding of the NAGAAA Gay Softball World Series.

This funding took place in Dallas and Waxahachie during the summer of last year.  Additional sponsors included the Dallas Mavericks.

During the 2023 season, the Rangers will host a number of theme evenings. These theme evening are going to be including games honoring the Dallas Cowboys, Dallas Mavericks, Dallas Stars, Star Wars, and Indiana Jones.

Whataburger will also be honored during one of these games. On top of that, Outsports has prepared a rundown of the many ways in which the other 29 Major League Baseball teams will celebrate their Pride Nights.

So far, there is no sign that the lone holdout will be switching things up any time soon.
