PHOTOS: Orioles Pride Night
A portion of proceeds donated to Moveable Feast
The Baltimore Orioles held their first LGBT Pride Night on June 27 and hosted close to 2,000 members of the community and their allies for an action-packed MLB baseball game. The Orioles fell to the Seattle Mariners in 11 innings by a score of 8 – 7.
On hand for the festivities were former MLB player Billy Bean and former MLB umpire Dale Scott, both of whom are openly gay. A portion of the proceeds from the event were donated to Moveable Feast which provides food and services to individuals suffering from HIV/AIDS, breast cancer, and those afflicted with terminal illness.
