Anti-Semitism Is Rampant In Pro Baseball
Ex-MLB player Cody Decker says that Nazi salute at the Oakland A's game is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to anti-Semitism in pro baseball ... insisting the problem is MUCH worse than it seems.
Decker -- who is Jewish -- was drafted by the San Diego Padres in 2009 and made his MLB debut in 2015. He retired from pro baseball in 2019.
In other words, Cody's been around the game a LONG time and has personally dealt with anti-Semitism ... a lot.
"I mean the amount of Nazis jokes I've dealt with throughout my entire career is pretty staggering," Decker says.
