What was said

… On this, we covered this, so this really kicks into high gear, predicated on the lie of fraud, and he told, Trump told the lie in 16, but it really happens in 2020 in Georgia with the voter suppression law, so abhorrent that Major League Baseball moves the All-Star Game that year to Colorado.

What we found

Supports. AP, Reuters, NPR and CBS (April 2–6, 2021) report that MLB moved the 2021 All-Star Game out of Atlanta over Georgia's new voting law, and NPR reports it was moved to Colorado's Coors Field.[1][2][3][4]

Context. The passage says the move happened 'in 2020' ('that year'), while the extracted claim says 2021. The claim adds a different date than the post states, so it is not the post's own assertion.

Context. MLB's stated reason was the Georgia law, though the Denver Post and NPR note that Colorado was chosen partly for logistical reasons, which bears on the 'due to' causal link.[3][5][6]
