San Francisco Giants manager Gabe Kapler said he will not take the field for the national anthem at tonight’s game against the Cincinnati Red or any game “until I feel better about the direction of our country.”
Said Kapler: “I don’t believe it is representing us well right now.”
He added: “Every time I place my hand over my heart and remove my hat, I’m participating in a self congratulatory glorification of the ONLY country where these mass shootings take place.”
