ST. LOUIS -- Jarrod Dyson stood alone in not standing.
The Pirates' center fielder, among Major League Baseball's many Black players outspoken in recent weeks against racial injustice was the only player to knee during the national anthem on either side of the 5-4 loss to the Cardinals on this Friday night at Busch Stadium.
On top of that, he became the only major-league Pittsburgh athlete in any sport to do so, at least to my knowledge.
"It meant a lot to me," Dyson spoke after the game.
