Individually, MLB's recent actions are, frankly, depressing. Taken together, the deceptive editing of Scully's call is the latest sign Major League Baseball is attempting to distance history made on the diamond from the inextricable circumstances that created it off the field. Unfortunately for MLB, many fans noticed.

Broadcaster Vin Scully's famous call of the Atlanta Braves legend's 715th career home run was edited during MLB all-star game tribute. Major League Baseball loves to celebrate its history and its iconic players, so it was only fitting that they put on a stellar tribute to Hank Aaron during Tuesday night’s All-Star Game in Atlanta.
