MLB and Democrats Will Hate These Ads Set to Air During All-Star Game

Major League Baseball is about to get hit by a pitch.

Actually, it’s about to get hit by two pitches — advertisements from major Republican political groups that are going to use the MLB All-Star Game as a setting to embarrass Commissioner Rob Manfred for the disgraceful decision in April to move the Midsummer Classic from Atlanta to Colorado.

And one specific Democrat isn’t going to be happy about the ads either.

As CBS News reported Monday, ads by the National Republican Committee and the National Republican Senatorial Committee are set to air Monday during the Home Run Derby and Tuesday during the All-Star Game itself bashing the decision.

The RNC ad drives home the idea that Manfred’s decision to pull the game out of Atlanta to protest Georgia’s new voting law is hurting the black communities MLB claims to care about.

Starring former state Rep. Melvin Everson, a Republican and Baptist minister, the ad attacks the decision to move the game in brutal, racially conscious terms more common to Democratic political message the GOP communications.

But the point is made.
