<p>Longtime Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw added a subtle change to his Pride Night cap, printing “GEN 9:12-16” next to the rainbow-colored team logo.</p>
<p>Leading Report (@leadingreport) shared the news via X along with a photo of Kershaw’s cap and the text of the verses the pitcher was referencing — verses that reference God’s promise to Noah, when He sent the rainbow as a sign that He would never again destroy the earth with a flood.</p>

<p>Kershaw, a Christian, also <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/sports/dodgers-clayton-kershaw-displays-bible-passage-hat-during-pride-night" target="_blank" rel="noopener">spoke out</a> in 2023 when the team planned to honor the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence — a group of “queer and trans nuns” who combine drag and religious imagery — by announcing the team’s faith and family night early.</p>
<p>“I think we were always going to do Christian Faith Day this year, but I think the timing of our announcement was sped up,” Kershaw said. “Picking a date and doing those different things was part of it as well. Yes, it was in response to the highlighting of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence [by the Dodgers].”</p>
<p>Kershaw said at the time that his objection was specifically to the Sisters and that he did not plan to boycott Pride Night, “I don’t agree with making fun of other people’s religions. It has nothing to do with anything other than that. I just don’t think that, no matter what religion you are, you should make fun of somebody else’s religion. So, that’s something that I definitely don’t agree with.”</p>
