Jack Morris suspended by Bally Sports Detroit for remarks about Los Angeles Angels' Shohei Ohtani

Detroit Tigers television analyst Jack Morris has been suspended indefinitely by Bally Sports Detroit after he used an accent in describing what the Tigers should do when pitching to the Los Angeles Angels' Shohei Ohtani.

Bally Sports Detroit said in a statement Wednesday that it was "extremely disappointed" with Morris' remarks and that the former major league pitcher will undergo bias training "to educate him on the impact of his comments and how he can be a positive influence in a diverse community."

"We have a zero-tolerance policy for bias or discrimination and deeply apologize for his insensitive remark," the network said.
