Scores of professional athletes in Venezuela, particularly baseball players affiliated with MLB clubs, had their travel schedules thrown into turmoil this week after the U.S. carried out a military operation to capture the country's leader. Several U.S. professional sports teams told ESPN that they've stepped in to offer support to their Venezuelan athletes. New York Mets infielder Luisangel Acuna and Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio are among the MLB players who participated in Venezuela this season. "So far, everything has been positive," a Chicago White Sox spokesperson told ESPN. An FC Cincinnati spokesperson told ESPN that Gomes worked with the team to get out, driving from Venezuela to Colombia and then flying to the United States.
