Major League Baseball Crowd Cheers for Gay Couple's Engagement

At a time when sporting events have become contentious with Donald Trump drumming up ire over NFL players taking a knee during the National Anthem to protest police brutality, something really beautiful happened when a gay couple got engaged at a baseball game between the Washington Nationals and the Pittsburgh Pirates, according to the Washington Blade.

The couple, Ty Fleming and Tyler Garrison, was sporting Nationals gear at a game when one of them got on his knees and proposed to the other while the camera captured the moment.

Even Screech, the Nationals' mascot, was on hand to congratulate the happy couple, but what was most heartwarming about the moment was that fans in the stands stood up and whistled, cheered, and clapped as Fleming and Garrison kissed and hugged.
