The Fresno Grizzlies, a minor league affiliate of the Colorado Rockies, faced a discrimination lawsuit over a 'Ladies Night' promotion from last season.

The Fresno Grizzlies, a minor league affiliate of the Colorado Rockies, faced a discrimination lawsuit over a "Ladies Night" promotion from last season.The lawsuit was filed against the team last week, according to YourCentralValley.com. It hinges on the promotion from May 25, 2023, in which female fans were allowed into the ballpark for free while men and "nonbinary persons" needed to pay to get into Chukchansi Park.

In doing so, the Grizzlies’ male-dominated front office managed to pull a rare trifecta of sex discrimination – misogyny, exorsexism, and misandry all at once – by treating female, nonbinary, and male fans unequally based solely on their gender," Alfred Rava, the plaintiffs’ attorney, told the station in a statement.Kevin Little, an attorney based in Fresno, said any organization that holds similar events runs the risk of violating the Unruh Act.
