In the bottom of the fourth inning of the Mets’ game in Arizona last night, Diamondbacks broadcaster Bob Brenly took it upon himself to make a racist comment about Marcus Stroman during a close-up shot of the pitcher: “pretty sure that’s the same du-rag that Tom Seaver used to wear when he pitched for the Mets.”
After the game, Stroman made it clear how he felt about the comment on Twitter with his own tweets and a series of retweets calling out the racism of the remark and calling for consequences for Brenly for saying it.
