Rabbi Yehuda Levin leading the charge against the BlueClaws

The Lakewood BlueClaws, a minor league baseball team, will be hosting its first ever "Pride Night" this Saturday as part of LGBTQ Pride Month.

Our favorite loudmouth and provocateur rabbi, Rabbi Yehuda Levin is leading the fight against this event specifically, and against Pride events in general.


What is interesting about this is that Levin's protest has been noted by a New Jersey radio station. They are now calling on people to attend the game, just to tick off the anti-gay rabbi. The headline of the article is "GO TO THE BLUECLAWS GAME TO TICK OFF THIS ANTI-GAY RABBI". By the end of the article they note that Levin does not represent all Orthodox Jews, nor are the Jews the only religion with lunatics like Levin and they quote an anti-gay tweet from a Christian pastor... but it is interesting that Levin, a Jewish rabbi, is the one they stress and take note of.

My guess is that this will be the best-attended game in BlueClaws history.

  1. It's Lakewood. Of course the Rabbi is going to be noted. I wouldn't expect anything different in, e.g., Crown Heights.

  2. Rabbi Levin is usually correct on his hashkafa and what he fights for, but doesn't go about it the typical way; he's not afraid and most other rabbis are afraid of going where they know it's a losing battle or because of fear. Why he puts himself out there (in galut) is questionable.
