D-backs broadcaster Bob Brenly is "stepping away from the booth over the next week after facing backlash for an on-air comment" about Mets P Marcus Stroman’s headwear. Brenly said in a statement, "I have voluntarily decided to take some time off to listen, reflect and devote my attention to awareness training related to diversity and inclusion. ... I plan to return to the booth next homestand, hopefully a better person." Brenly issued an apology Wednesday and was not in the booth for the D-backs' away game against the Brewers on Thursday (AP, 6/4).
