Dodgers player says MLB broadcasts are airing 'soft porn ads'
Dodgers outfielder posted on social media about the "half-naked women" in commercials.
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Alex Call expressed concern on social media regarding the content of Major League Baseball playoff broadcasts, alleging that the advertisements displayed are of a "soft porn" nature. Call, who is not currently on the Dodgers' active roster but is still with the team, took to X to share his thoughts and the experience of his son.
Call's son expressed a desire to watch a baseball game with him during the playoffs. However, Call claimed that the commercials, featuring Megan Fox and Sydney Sweeney among others, left him feeling compelled to "justify... half-naked women" appearing on the screen. He questioned how parents can allow their children to watch baseball with them during these broadcasts, as the content could be too mature for young viewers.
Alex Call questioned the broadcasting platforms, TBS, Fox, NBC, and MLB, urging them to remove such "soft porn ads" from playoff broadcasts. He emphasized that baseball is America's pastime and parents should not have to worry about their children being exposed to inappropriate content during these events.
