A former pro baseball player who is gay is speaking out against homophobia in the sport more than a year after hateful comments drove him to quit the minor leagues.
In a letter to SB Nation's Outsports published Wednesday, Tyler Dunnington wrote that he was "one of the unfortunate closeted gay athletes who experienced years of homophobia in the sport I loved." Dunnington played at three colleges and then with the St. Louis Cardinals minor league team in Florida for the 2014 season.
