This is a franchise that broke the color barrier with the signing of Jackie Robinson in 1947. It celebrated the life of Glenn Burke, the first openly gay player, last summer during their annual LGBTQ+ Pride Night last summer. Former tennis star Billie Jean King, an advocate of gender equality, is a minority owner of the team.
Once Bauer was placed on administrative leave in July 2021 by Major League Baseball after a San Diego woman filed a restraining order against him that was eventually denied, the Dodgers knew then he would never pitch for them again. They simply had to wait for the District Attorney of Los Angeles County and MLB’s investigations to conclude.
