Athletics announcer Glen Kuiper received widespread criticism Friday night when he appeared to use a racial slur during Oakland’s 12–8 win against the Royals in Kansas City.
Late Friday night, the Athletics issued a statement following the incident.
"The language used by Glen Kuiper during today’s pregame broadcast is unacceptable," the team wrote. "The Oakland Athletics do not condone such language. We are working to address the situation."
