Summary
Friday’s Pride Night at Camden Yards will feature drag performer Heidi N Closet as Guest Splasher in the Bird Bath during the bottom of the second inning, the Orioles said.
The Bird Bath spans Sections 84 and 86 and sits next to the Under Armour Kids Home Run Porch, which serves children 12 and under with an adult, making the booking a flashpoint over a family-oriented area.
15,000 fans are set to receive Pride Night jerseys, while the club has also promoted pregame activities, themed merchandise and free MARC Camden Line round-trip service starting at 3:30 p.m.
The rollout lands as MLB is already under scrutiny from the San Francisco Giants’ Pride Night dispute, where pitchers’ Bible verses on caps drew league warnings and a Justice Department discrimination probe.
