Fox News
Former Dodgers World Series champion Steve Garvey said he opposes transgender athletes in women's sports and is calling on national leadership to set clear definitions.
Jackson Thompson is a sports writer for Fox News Digital. He previously worked for ESPN and Business Insider. Jackson has covered the Super Bowl and NBA Finals, and has interviewed iconic figures Usain Bolt, Rob Gronkowski, Jerry Rice, Troy Aikman, Mike Trout, David Ortiz and Roger Clemens.
"This is an issue I've talked to a lot of people. I just believe it's defined by biological men and women, and I think that God gives us freewill and choice, and if you choose to transgender, say from male and female, then you should compete against those people that have done the same thing," Garvey said.
Garvey cited his experience as a father to his two daughters, Krisha and Whitney, for his stance.
