Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Anthony Bass apologized after causing outrage on Monday when he shared a video calling for Christian believers to boycott brands like Target and Bud Light over their LGBTQ2 brand partnerships and products.

Bass, a Jays reliever with a 4.50 earned run average (ERA), shared a reel from the Instagram user @dudewithgoodnews to his own story. The video claimed there is a “biblical reason” why religious followers must avoid buying from brands that promote or align with LGBTQ2 rights and activism.

“Here’s the reason biblically why I believe Christians have gotta be boycotting Target, Bud Light, and any other corporation that’s pushing the things they’re pushing. I think a lot of people make this into a political issue, or they say, ‘Oh, what’s the big deal?'” the video says.
