Another baseball team releases 'It Gets Better' video

The Minnesota Twins' It Gets Better video is due out in the next week or so, and slowly -- very slowly -- other baseball teams are contributing to the project that started after several news stories about young people killing themselves.

The Pittsburgh Pirates are the latest team to add a video:

Pirates Manager Clint Hurdle and pitchers Joel Hanrahan and Jeff Karstens participated in the video which, notably, actually mentions LGBT young people. Many of the videos stop short of that.

You know what would make a REAL difference? If a popular professional athlete came out.
