Champ Kind Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 (Reuters) - A first baseman for the minor league Helena Brewers, a rookie affiliate of the Milwaukee Brewers, has come out publicly as gay, a first for an active player connected with Major League Baseball, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel newspaper. David Denson, 20, came out publicly to the newspaper with the help of former major leaguer Billy Bean, who last year was named MLB's first "Ambassador for Inclusion," the Sentinel reported on Sunday. Only two major league players have ever come out publicly as gay - Bean and Glenn Burke - and both had already left the game, the paper reported.
