Thom Brennaman to resign from role with Cincinnati Reds

It has been roughly five weeks since a microphone picked up Thom Brennaman using a homophbic slur on-air during a Cincinnati Reds broadcast, one that saw him later step away before being suspended by the team.

Today, Brennaman announced that he will resign from his role, as Evan Millward of Cincinnati station WCPO relayed earlier on Twitter.
