Blue Jay Yunel Escobar will sit down with the head of an anti-homophobia in sports group sometime this week.

On Sunday, You Can Play founder Patrick Burke tweeted that he'd confirmed his meeting with the baseball player.

Escobar was suspended for 3 games for wearing a homophobic slur written in Spanish on his face during a recent matchup with the Red Sox.

Through a translator, the shortstop has said he is embarrassed by his actions.

His lost wages, about $90-thousand went to You Can Play & Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD).

Patrick Burke said last week the Blue Jays have told him the team is "set on making long term commitments to the LGBT community" & that they should have been more proactive.
