Thom Brennaman, former Cincinnati Reds broadcaster, hired by Roberto Clemente League

Cincinnati Enquirer

Former Cincinnati Reds television broadcaster Thom Brennaman was hired by the Roberto Clemente League in Puerto Rico as its play-by-play man for the 2020-21 season.

The league begins its season Tuesday evening.

Brennaman spoke last week with 700 WLW's Scott Sloan about what Brennaman has done and how he's responded since using an on-air, homophobic slur during a FOX Sports Ohio broadcast in August.

Brennaman resigned from his play-by-play job with the Reds and FSO in September - about one month after he was suspended for using a homophobic slur during a Fox Sports Ohio Reds-Royals broadcast.
