Late Tuesday night, Mets pitcher Marcus Stroman responded to comments made by former Diamondbacks manager and current television analyst, Bob Brenly during the middle of Tuesday's contest featuring the two teams.
Brenly, the former World Series-winning manager who now works for Bally Sports Arizona, commented on Stroman's attire during the fourth inning.
"Pretty sure that's the same durag that Tom Seaver used to wear when he pitched for the Mets," Brenly said during the telecast.
Stroman responded to Brenly's comments, saying on Twitter, "Onward and upward...through all adversity and racist undertones. The climb continues through all!
