The Boston Red Sox have unveiled a ‘Black Lives Matter’ mural on the outside facing wall of Fenway Park, directed towards the busy Mass Pike. The politically charged mural, amid months of rioting, has sparked outrage among local Bostonians who disagree with the message.

Looks like no more red sox for me. Back a Marxist organization and you lose fans. Simple.

Boston Red Sox fans want one thing, baseball. Political activism demonstrated by the organization will surely backfire on ticket sales among conservative fans this coming year.
