(CBSNewYork)- Mets starter Marcus Stroman pitched in the team’s extra-innings loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday night. Over six innings, he gave up three runs and struck, out six but it was comments made during the game that overshadowed his performance.
Bally Sports Arizona commentator Bob Brenly made comments about Stroman’s head covering during the fourth inning, which Stroman took exception to on Twitter saying the comments had “racist undertones.”
