<p>A priest with a strong connection to legendary baseball broadcaster <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/vin-scully-hall-of-fame-dodgers-announcer-of-67-years-dead-at-94" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Vin Scully</a> said he believes the late <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/vin-scully-hall-of-fame-dodgers-announcer-of-67-years-dead-at-94" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Los Angeles Dodgers announcer</a> would not &#8220;approve&#8221; of their beloved team warming up to a <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/feature/nbc-out/drag-troupe-sisters-perpetual-indulgence-mark-40-years-dragtivism-n996701" target="_blank" rel="noopener">drag troupe</a> of self-described &#8220;queer and trans nuns.&#8221;</p>
<p>Father Steve Davoren, who <a href="https://angelusnews.com/local/la-catholics/remembering-vin-scully/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">presided</a> over the Mass and burial service for <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/vin-scully-hall-of-fame-dodgers-announcer-of-67-years-dead-at-94" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Scully</a> last year, spoke with The Daily Wire on Wednesday about the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/dodgers-re-invite-queer-and-trans-nuns-troupe-with-an-apology" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dodgers re-inviting</a> the controversial Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence to its annual Pride Night celebration in a move that has outraged Catholics due to certain antics, such as <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/dodgers-boot-anti-catholic-sisters-of-perpetual-indulgence-from-lgbt-event-after-controversy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pole dancing on a cross</a>, that they say is a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/catholicvote-leader-slams-dodgers-for-re-inviting-queer-and-trans-nuns-troupe-to-pride-night" target="_blank" rel="noopener">mockery of their faith</a> and the sacrifice of Jesus Christ.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve got to keep that personal because he was a very personal guy,&#8221; Daveron said when asked what Scully might think of the situation. &#8220;But I think that, just, he is a deep man of faith, I mean on that I do know personally, and I know he loved the Dodgers, he loved the family, but he loved his faith.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;And devout in his beautiful, amazing family that he has, just you could tell they radiate in Christ&#8217;s love because he and Sandra brought that to their family,&#8221; Daveron continued, referring to <a href="https://dodgers.mlblogs.com/sandra-scully-wife-of-vin-scully-passes-away-d325ace94e63?gi=f68dd74d138e" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Scully&#8217;s late wife</a>. &#8220;So I know — I just, my own personal, totally me, from my experience — that he would not approve because it is mocking it — a faith that was dear to him.&#8221; He added: &#8220;So I know he would not approve, I just have that feeling.&#8221;</p>
<p>Scully <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/vin-scully-hall-of-fame-dodgers-announcer-of-67-years-dead-at-94" target="_blank" rel="noopener">died at the age of 94</a> in August. He is remembered not just for being the &#8220;<a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/obituaries/vin-scully-legendary-voice-dodgers-dies-94-rcna41259" target="_blank" rel="noopener">voice of the Dodgers</a>&#8221; over the course of a 67-year career but as also a devout Catholic. “Faith is the one thing that makes it work, makes me keep going,” <a href="https://angelusnews.com/local/la-catholics/sports-broadcasting-legend-vin-scully-opens-up-about-his-catholic-faith-in-an-exclusive-interview/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">he once told Angelus News</a>.</p>
<p>During Scully&#8217;s funeral, Daveron shared that he spoke about the acronym &#8220;FAMILY,&#8221; which stands for &#8220;Forget About Me, I Love You.&#8221; Himself a Dodgers fan since childhood, Daveron explained that he sees himself as part of the Dodgers family, and Scully as being like the &#8220;grandpa&#8221; of that family.</p>
<p>Daveron, who is a pastor at St. Mel’s Church in Woodland Hills, California, stressed that Pride Night in general is &#8220;fine,&#8221; but the Dodgers re-extending an invitation to the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, which the team did on Monday under pressure from LGBT groups, is what makes him feel an &#8220;intense sadness&#8221; and &#8220;pain&#8221; in his heart. &#8220;To mock in such a way that hits the core of what we believe is just so sad,&#8221; he added.</p>
<p>Daveron said his message to Dodgers is to &#8220;emphasize the Dodger family&#8221; without &#8220;alienating&#8221; any particular group. &#8220;You can be inclusive but you have to be unifying too,&#8221; he said before urging the team to focus on playing the game of baseball and creating a fun escape for all fans.</p>
