Arizona Diamondbacks broadcaster Bob Brenly apologized on Wednesday for a making comment on Tuesday’s broadcast about the headwear of Mets pitcher Marcus Stroman.
“During last night’s game, I made a poor attempt at humor that was insensitive and wrong,” Brenly, a former Diamondbacks manager, said in a statement released through the team. “I apologize to Marcus Stroman and have reached out directly to share those thoughts. I have had several conversations with the D-backs and we agree that seeking sensitivity training is an important step so that I can continue to learn from my mistakes in order to be better in the future.
