(NEXSTAR) – Members of the San Francisco Giants will be required to stand on the field during the national anthem at this season’s games, manager Bob Melvin says. The new rule stands in contrast to the behavior exhibited by the team and previous manager Gabe Kapler in recent years, after Kapler expressed and exercised his preference for kneeling during the anthem in the wake of the tragedy in Uvalde. But Melvin’s edict, he claims, has nothing to do with politics. “It’s all about the perception that we’re ready to play,” said Melvin, per The Athletic. “That’s it. You want your team ready to play and I want the other team to notice it, too. It’s really as simple as that.”
