Dodgers’ Adrián González Pushes for Spanish Accents on Major League Baseball Jerseys

Dodgers first baseman Adrián González is leading the movement in encouraging Latino players across MLB to put Spanish accents on their jerseys.

On Monday, González tweeted a video of himself walking onto the field showing off his jersey with an accent over the “a.” He also included the hashtag #ponleacento, which translates to “put on the accent.”

For those who do not know Spanish, the tweet translates:

“After 16 years in the major leagues the only thing left was to put an accent on one thing. Kike Hernández I dare you.”
