Baltimore Orioles play-by-play announcer Kevin Brown has been taken off the air and radio after making seemingly harmless comments about the team's record against the Tampa Bay Rays. The Orioles have not commented on the situation but stated that Brown will return in the near future. Fox News Digital has reached out to the Orioles for a comment but has been directed to MASN, with no immediate response from the network.
A senior Orioles official told the Baltimore Banner that the team doesn't comment on"employment decisions" but said Brown"will be back with us in the near future."
