MLB Note - Texas Rangers DeShields Jr., Delino

Sep 26, 2017 - 9:47 AM OF Delino DeShields addressed the national discourse regarding the national anthem and comments made recently by President Trump, and the role professional athletes can take. "It's about others who aren't as privileged, not given the opportunity we've been given," he said. "They go through stuff like that on a daily basis. It's more so giving people in the inner cities, minorities a voice who can speak for them. With the platform we've been given as athletes, it's a great opportunity to give people that voice."
