Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts condemned racism and violence against Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders in a recent email sent to the entire Dodgers organization (via Dennis Lin and Pedro Moura of The Athletic):
"I have just come to a peace about speaking out about things that I believe are right. And this particular situation towards Asians, Asian Americans, is something that obviously affects me personally, having a mother from Okinawa, Japan. Seeing what's going on in our country, I just felt that I wanted to internally put something together for our organization, showing my support toward Asian Americans in our organization and acknowledge what's going in our country and around the world that I just don't believe is right.
