This is so bizarre - he pointed out that the Orioles have historically sucked against the Rays?
Oriole's front office obviously never cared much for Harry Doyle's sense of humor...
The Orioles' brass suspending him for that tells you exactly why they are a bunch of losers.
Jack Cristil said worse about MSU. His Sonic drive of the game comment about the drive of the game was his drive back to Tupelo still makes me laugh.
I was waiting for him to ask Ben to define the word woman or something.
Evidently the O's front is seeeensitive to reality. Sometimes it hurts, but, it's still the truth
lol MLB broadcasters weighing in
"The Orioles haven't won a series in so long, you'll need survey equipment to spot the archive of their last series win"
I wonder if they fired the guy that made the graphics that were displaying the same information he was saying?
I've listened to it three times and I haven't heard anything even remotely offensive.
Agree that it went on way too long, but these announces are left stumbling around trying to fill air time.
MGT should have brought him in and gave him a good talking to and moved on.

A talking to for what?
A good talking to?
You shouldnt be subjected to 'a good talking to' if nothing offensive or disrespectful was said.
are you folks really this soft? A good talking to never hurt nobody, not a day goes by that I don't give an employee and/or family member a good talking to. Keeps folks down, hungry and a little worried.
I’m all for good talking to’s, but what exactly does he need one for specifically? Boy didn’t even mumble.
he went on too long about, say it once and move on.
What if Matt Wyatt went on for a minute about Bama dominating us? Everyone knows it, say it once an move it.
Telling the truth? Relaying factual information?
It was less than 1 minute of air time before a midweek mlb game. Boy has to fill time. I think the talking to should go to the Oriel’s owners.
What's hilarious about this is, they suspended him because they didn't like him drawing attention to their recent record playing there. Now they've drawn 100 times more attention to it as he did. So nice going Orioles. You were the feel-good story of MLB this year. Now you just look like a bunch of a**holes.
There was a 3 day delay between the comment and the suspension. I'll bet players complained about it.
ETA: I love baseball, but the only people in sports more thin skinned than MLB players are MLB umps.

I would like to say, is the first case of stupid/near sighted owners I've seen in one form of professional ball or another, but I think it wouldn't be very hard to come up with more examples.
More wussification of America. Everyone is just too damn sensitive.
Karma catching up with the Orioles. Gave up a grand slam leading by 3 in the ninth. Needless to say they lost.
You're lucky this isn't an Orioles message board or you'd be banned for a month for saying that
Well leave it to my wife to side with Orioles management on this by saying he should be more aware of the negative connotation of the wording and should be portraying a more positive outlook for the Orioles who are now in first place vs where they have been and there dismal record vs the Rays.

After reversing the clip, playing it at 1/4 speed, hitting mute, and playing some Snoop Dogg, I heard the n-word.
Fire his аss.
Fire his аss.
Ha, what? Why would I and basically everyone else that's responded to you, the soft ones?
Those who suspended him are the soft ones.
I did laugh at learning you don't let a day go by without giving someone a good talking to. Haha, that is just genuinely hilarious to hear.
I envision you summoning family members and lecturing them on whatever your latest dislikes are. Gotta keep em humble and hungry, right? They need to work for your approval and conditional love!
