Fan BANNED from stadium after taunting Diamondbacks second baseman to tears
The Arizona Diamondbacks’ recent 4-1 win over the White Sox in Chicago wasn’t all fun and games, after second baseman Ketel Marte appeared to break down in tears at second base after a fan reportedly heckled him about his late mother.
The heckling took place during Marte’s at-bat in the seventh inning, before he was then consoled by manager Torey Lovullo and shortstop Geraldo Perdomo.
The spectator is alleged to have made a derogatory remark about Marte’s mother, who passed away after a car accident in 2017.
After the incident, Lovullo and Diamondbacks bench coach Jeff Banister asked security to remove the fan from the stadium, and security complied. Now, the White Sox organization has banned the fan from the ballpark.
While BlazeTV host Pat Gray, who has lost both his parents, is sympathetic to the passing of Marte's mother, he and his panel don’t believe there’s a place in baseball for tears over the past.
“So a 31-year-old male, playing in Major League Baseball, who signed a $119 million contract begins crying over something a fan yelled at him,” Jeffy says, before playing the “There’s no crying in baseball” clip from the classic film “A League of Their Own.”
“I lost my mom eight years ago as well. Same year as he did. In fact, I became an orphan at that particular time point. My dad died in 1997, my mom in 2017. I was an orphan,” Gray comments, adding, “We all miss our moms.”

Woman celebrates her ‘abor-bor,’ claims her pit bull always ‘wins’ over a baby
The left’s side of the abortion debate is evil enough as it is, but a woman on TikTok decided to take it a step further and add her pit bull — a breed well known to attack children — into the mix.
“As many of you saw, I had an abor-bor earlier this year, not only because I don’t want children right now, but you want to know the real reason? I already have a baby, it’s this one right here,” the woman said proudly as she panned her camera to the pit bull behind her.
“He cost me a lot of time and energy and money, and if I had to choose between a human baby’s needs and this one, I’m choosing this one every time,” she continued.
“That’s why this fall, there’s only one candidate protecting our reproductive freedoms, and if she doesn’t win — don’t make me choose between a human baby and this one — because this one wins every freaking time,” she added.
“My political ideology is whatever makes that illegal,” BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey comments. “Every part of that, actually. There’s so many things in that clip that I think should be illegal; having an abortion and owning a pit bull.”
“This really just goes to show disordered priorities and disordered desires just put your whole life out of whack,” she says. “That’s really what’s happening here. When you worship the creature rather than the creator, who is blessed forever, amen, as Romans 1 tells us, then everything gets distorted and disordered.”
“Like, if you cannot see how absolutely depraved and backwards and dark that is, this is, like, a spiritual issue, a demonic problem here, then you need to be reading your Bible and praying a lot more,” she adds.
