Orioles play-by-play broadcaster Kevin Brown reportedly was removed from MASN broadcasts after he made a reference to Baltimore's lack of success against the Tampa Bay Rays at Tropicana Field in previous years.
The Orioles dispute that Brown was suspended, adding to Awful Announcing through a senior official that"we don't comment on personal matters" and"we look forward to hearing Kevin's voice soon."
The Orioles' reported removal of Brown drew criticism from a number of broadcasters across MLB on Monday. Brown has worked for the Orioles as a TV and a radio commentator since 2019. He also serves as a play-by-play commentator on several college sports across ESPN platforms. The Orioles, owned by Peter Angelos, had been among the worst teams in baseball from 2018 to 2021. But they've turned it around this season and are in first place in the American League East.
