He gone. 

Quote

Oakland Athletics broadcaster Glen Kuiper was fired by NBC Sports California after using a racial slur during a telecast while describing a trip to the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum.

Kuiper was suspended by the network earlier this month after his slur that aired during a pregame segment of an A's game against the Kansas City Royals on May 5. Kuiper talked about a trip to the museum with colleague Dallas Braden but seemingly mispronounced the word "Negro," making it sound instead like a slur.

"Following an internal review, the decision has been made for NBC Sports California to end its relationship with Glen Kuiper, effective immediately," the network said in a statement Monday. "We thank Glen for his dedication to Bay Area baseball over the years."

A person familiar with the investigation said "the decision was based on a variety of factors, including information uncovered in the internal review." The person spoke on condition of anonymity and didn't divulge specific details because the network had not publicly disclosed the results of the investigation.

Kuiper apologized on the air later in that game without getting into specifics, saying he said something that "didn't come out quite the way I wanted it to." He later issued a statement through the network when he was suspended, saying: "I could not be more sorry and horrified by what I said. I hope you will accept my sincerest apologies."

Welcome to 2023.

I’d still rather that than pay ~$70 for a cable/satellite package that include ls 5 channels I really care about.

MLB not offering some sort of super package that allows you to get these one off “exclusively on” games is going to be a problem though.

that's dumb. it was clearly an accident, and the entire world had already moved on and forgotten about it.

It was going to be tough to move on. It wasn't a close thing.

Pitch-out by Atl just now, may be the first I've seen in '23. 

I thought they might come back with the pickoff rule.  Maybe they still will.

An announced 8,857 - lowest of the season - to see #Rays and #BlueJays at the Trop tonight.

 

That's crazy.  I remember way back in the day, the toughest spring training tickets to get were Blue Jays games.

I will admit I was incredibly annoyed with his signing. Really thought we were in for the next Chan Ho or Choo. He may not perform for the entirety of his contract, but I've been quite pleased with his performance thus far

I find myself looking at Oakland stats.  They’ve given up twice as many runs as Houston, and are just a little shy of 100 more runs given up than the next highest total. 

#1189

Total fluke W for Baltimore tonight. Homer off the goddamn foul pole and all. That’s the shit that makes & breaks a season. It’s better to be lucky than be the better team.

#1190

lol what the hell is lucky about hitting the foul pole? your yankees play in a tiny little kiddie bandbox ballpark where pop flies become bombs and you think foul pole hr's are cheap? what am i saying, of course you do.

#1191
Since 1976, there have been 87 players aged 36 & older that have had an OPS <.600 through first 175 PA of their season like Jose Abreu does now.21 put up 200+ more PA.5 of those had a rest of season OPS over .750. 1 (Andre Dawson) managed >.800 RoS OPS. @StatsPerform

Ouch.

There’s a separated shoulder, at least. 

Jorge Soler continues to be on another level, but Rockies CF Brenton Doyle is down in pain after trying to make the catch

5-run bot 7 for the mighty Nats to take the lead over SD. Hate to see it. 

Is Melvin gonna get fired? There has to be some sweaty palms hovering over the panic button at the moment.
