SAN DIEGO -- A member of a Canadian singing quartet changed a lyric in his countrys national anthem and held up a sign proclaiming All Lives Matter during a pregame performance at baseballs 87th All-Star Game on Tuesday.The Tenors, a group based in British Columbia, caused a stir at Petco Park with Remigio Pereiras actions while singing O Canada.In a statement of apology issued during the game, three of The Tenors pinned the changes solely on Pereira, who held up the sign and sang the altered lyrics, while the other three singers wordlessly harmonized. The three other members said Pereira wont perform with The Tenors until further notice, calling his actions disrespectful and shameful.The change happened during the middle portion of the anthem, which is often sung in French at sporting events.Pereira unexpectedly sang: Were all brothers and sisters. All lives matter to the great.The normal lyric is: With glowing hearts we see thee rise. The True North strong and free.United We Stand was written on the back of Pereiras sign.Major League Baseball also had no idea Pereira intended to make a political statement, spokesman Matt Bourne said.Although the audio wasnt crystal clear at the park, many fans reacted with surprise when they saw the sign on the ballpark video scoreboard. The Canadian anthem wasnt shown live on U.S. television, but it aired in Canada, where the Tenors decision lit up social media with overwhelming criticism of the change.The Tenors are Pereira, Clifton Murray, Fraser Walters and Victor Micallef. The Juno Award-winning group has recorded multiple platinum albums in Canada and performed around the world, including gigs at the 2010 Winter Olympics opening ceremonies, the 2012 Queens Jubilee in England and the 2014 Stanley Cup finals.All Lives Matter has become a common online response in past months to the Black Lives Matter movement, particularly after the recent police shootings of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile.The motivations and ethnicities of the proponents of the All Lives Matter response vary, but it has received heavy criticism. The phrase is widely perceived to use reductive reasoning to trivialize the problems specifically facing blacks.Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

Murrays grandmother will soon be baking shortbread for the British team.Its become one of those silly traditions that I always supply some shortbread for the team, Shirley Erskine, who is in her 80s, told the Wimbledon Diary. I bake some for every tie, though of course its not the sort of thing that players should have in their diet. I always find a way of getting the shortbread to the team, whether or not Roy [her husband] and I are travelling to the tie.A piece of shortbread would be kryptonite for gluten-free Djokovic, who has just opened a vegan restaurant in Monte Carlo. But the British team couldnt survive without the shortbread, which helped fuel their run to last seasons title, Britains first since 1936.One difficulty for away ties -- such as this one, which will be played in Belgrade -- is keeping the shortbread fresh while going through airport security. I always seal up the tin to try to keep the shortbread fresh, but then you have to get the tin through security, said Erskine, who is Judy Murrays mother. You tell them that its just shortbread inside but the tin still has to be opened and then the seal is broken.Tight security no longer a surpriseHow quickly the players have become accustomed to the higher levels of security at this summers Championsships.dddddddddddd No one at the Aorangi Park practice courts seemed to even take a second glance when some heavily-armed police, with sub-machine guns, passed through on patrol.Quote of the dayWhy 2016 scandals are great for tennisSome might suggest that this has been a trying year for tennis, what with the match-fixing allegations that were made before the Australian Open, and Maria Sharapovas suspension after failing a doping test. But Serena Williams coach, Patrick Mouratoglou, has told the Wimbledon Diary that this has been great for tennis as it shows no one is above the law.Tennis players are human -- they make mistakes and people cheat, said Mouratoglou. They do things that arent allowed. But the good thing is that people are caught.I think there is much less doping and match-fixing in tennis than there is in other sports, for reasons I cant explain. Im just sure of it. Its fine if we catch them. This would be a terrible year for tennis if we knew there were cheaters and we didnt do anything about it.Dry run for BerdychDont expect to run into Tomas Berdych, a former finalist, in the Dog and Fox. Or, indeed, in any other pubs in Wimbledon Village. Do I go to bars? Not really, theres no time, the Czech told the Wimbledon Diary. Thats the last, last, last thing that you look for when youre at a tournament.
