If the Toronto Blue Jays hope to even their series with the Baltimore Orioles on Friday, they have the right pitcher going for them. Right-hander Marco Estrada will be trying to win his fourth straight start, and if he does, it would give the Blue Jays their first victory of the important four-game series. The Orioles scored a 6-5 comeback win over the Blue Jays in the opener Thursday with first baseman Chris Davis piling up three RBIs on a solo home run and two sacrifice flies. Continue to Article

When Rachel Lauren Clark took the mound at Rogers Centre on Thursday night in Toronto she made some history. Clark threw out the ceremonial first pitch before the Blue Jays' game against the Orioles on behalf of the Pride Toronto board, and in doing so became the first transperson to carry out those honors at a major-league game. [ Join a Yahoo Daily Fantasy Baseball contest now ] Throwing out tonight's first pitch is Rachel of @PrideToronto ! June 2016 is Toronto's first ever Pride Month! pic.twitter.com/JsYHJc2cjx — Toronto Blue Jays (@BlueJays) June 9, 2016 This historic occasion comes during Canada's first-ever Pride Month , which culminates July 3 with the annual pride parade in Toronto. Clark hopes her pitch, and her presence at the ballpark, can help the LGBT community feel comfortable and accepted in places like a baseball game. From Metro Toronto : “I’d love to live in a world where there’s no more firsts in social concepts,” she said. “That would mean everyone is treated equally. No more first female to do this, first gay person to do that, first black person to do that.” “I mean, who doesn’t love the Blue Jays in Toronto?” she said. “We have an opportunity to create a safe space for everybody and enjoy the things we love.” Last year Breanna Sinclaire sang the "Star-Spangled Banner" at an Oakland Athletics game, becoming the first transperson to sing the national anthem at a professional sporting event in the United States. [Elsewhere: A front-row seat to David Ortiz's farewell tour ] The sports world, and society at large, still has a long way to go though in terms of being completely inclusive to the LGBT community. Curt Schilling was fired by ESPN earlier this season after posting an anti-transgender meme on his Facebook account. It was less than four years ago when Yunel Escobar had a gay slur printed in Spanish on his eye black while playing for the Blue Jays. With courageous people like Clark and organizations like You Can Play leading the charge, there is truly reason to believe that change is coming.
