The New York Yankees slugger Aaron Judge is the first voice and the last voice you hear on a players union video that was released on CC Sabathia’s Twitter account.  The subject is not the baseball negotiations that are at a standstill, but the ongoing civil strife regarding race in America.

The video besides Judge features CC Sabathia, Aaron Hicks, Giancarlo Stanton, and the Mets Marcus Stroman as well as other MLB players. This is the first time that the MLBPA (players union) has commented on the Black Lives Matter movement.
