It should have been a fun night at the ballpark Saturday in San Diego for anyone not rooting for the Los Angeles Dodgers, but it became an evening filled with confusion and hurt feelings for some before the game even started. The San Diego Gay Men's Chorus was invited to sing the National Anthem at the "Out at the Park" event at Petco Park and 100 volunteer members were on hand to participate. But when the moment arrived, the chorus was forced to stand on the field and listen to a recording of a woman singing the anthem instead, and the Padres never took any action to correct what the organization said was a mistake, such as allowing the SDGMC to perform after the recorded anthem ended. [Elsewhere: George Springer decided to play some football dressed as a T-Rex ] Making matters worse, members of the chorus reported being booed and heckled as they were ushered off the field following the recorded anthem, including at least one taunt of 'You sing like a girl.' The gay men's chorus has performed at Padres games multiple times in the past, including just last season (see the video below). So there was no reason to suspect there would be anything unusual about Saturday's performance....
