Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame catcher Johnny Bench made an anti-Semitic joke during the team’s Hall of Fame induction ceremony for former general manager Gabe Paul and former pitchers Danny Graves and Bronson Arroyo, as first reported by WCPO.

After Paul’s induction, Pete Rose said the former general manager signed him for $400 per month out of high school, to which Paul’s daughter Jennie responded “that’s cheap.”

Bench then said “He was Jewish,” in the WCPO video.
