Blue Jays outfielder Kevin Pillar will donate his forfeited salary from a two-game suspension last month to two Toronto-based LGBTQ organizations.
Pillar was handed the suspension for yelling an anti-gay slur at Atlanta Braves reliever Jason Motte during a heated on-field confrontation in a May 17 game.
Pillar also caught the ceremonial first-pitch before Thursday's 12-2 loss to the Yankees, thrown out by Michelle Cherny, a member of Pride Toronto's board of directors.
Pillar apologized for using for the slur and has been working with the MLB and the players union to best how to donate his garnished wages.
