"Camden Yards Unites in Support of Suspended Orioles Broadcaster Kevin Brown"

Fans at Camden Yards, home of the Baltimore Orioles, erupted in a "free Kevin Brown" chant during a nationally televised game in support of the suspended play-by-play announcer. Brown was reportedly suspended by the team for making benign comments about the Orioles' poor record against the Tampa Bay Rays. The chant and signs expressing support for Brown highlighted a groundswell of backing for his reinstatement. Broadcasters across the league also voiced their criticism of the Orioles' handling of the situation. Reports suggest that Brown may return to the airwaves soon.

Orioles' Announcer Drama Casts Shadow on Team's Image

The Baltimore Orioles' recent success on the field has been overshadowed by a controversy surrounding broadcaster Kevin Brown, who was absent from the booth for two weeks due to comments he made about the team's previous struggles. The comments, which were based on factual information provided in the team's game notes, apparently rubbed team owner John Angelos the wrong way. This incident highlights a pattern of questionable decisions by Angelos, including the dismissal of other broadcasters and a lack of transparency. Brown is expected to return to the broadcast booth soon, but the incident raises concerns about job security and the potential for misinterpretation of future comments.

Orioles suspend announcer Kevin Brown for critical comment about team's lack of success

Baltimore Orioles announcer Kevin Brown has been suspended after making a comment about the team's lack of success at the Tampa Bay Rays' Tropicana Field. Brown pointed out that the Orioles had won more games at the stadium in 2023 than in the previous three years combined. Ownership took exception to the comment, believing it made them sound cheap. This is not the first time Orioles ownership has reacted negatively to critical comments. Brown has not returned to the broadcast booth since the incident, and it is unknown when he will return.
