Baltimore Orioles pitcher Kevin Gausman was in a tough spot.

Going to a preseason NFL game between the New Orleans Saints and the Baltimore Ravens. Went to college at LSU. Now plays in Baltimore. Which team do you root for? What jersey do you wear?

Gausman opted for a Saints jersey.

The replies from fans were mixed, however. Some people didn't care, some boo'd him:

To add another layer, Gausman was born and raised in Colorado. So what happens when the Denver Broncos and Ravens face off Week 1?
