The Los Angeles Dodgers Pride Night controversy may be over. After much speculation about who was or wasn’t invited, it looks like the team has officially invited the group known as the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence back to the ballpark for Pride Night.
The team first invited them before they got a big response. As a result, they decided to withdraw the invitation and keep the group away from the celebrations. However, after further consideration, they decided to invite the group one more time.
