Negro Leagues Baseball Museum President Bob Kendrick said in a statement Saturday he will aim to forgive Oakland A’s<\/a> announcer Glen Kuiper for using the N-word during a live broadcast Friday night.<\/p>\n

Kendrick, president of the NLBM<\/a> since 2011, hopes others can find it in their hearts to forgive Kuiper too.<\/p>\n

“I’m aware of the unfortunate slur made by Glen Kuiper. I welcomed Glen to the NLBM yesterday and know he was genuinely excited to be here,” Kendrick wrote on Twitter<\/a>. “The word is painful and has no place in our society. And while I don’t pretend to know Glen’s heart I do know that my heart is one of forgiveness. I hope all of you will find it in yourselves to do the same!”<\/p>\n

During the pregame, Kuiper was describing a trip to the museum in Kansas City, Missouri, with colleague Dallas Braden.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Kuiper used the slur<\/a> when referring to the museum, when he likely meant to use the word “Negro.”<\/p>\n

Later in the game, Kuiper apologized but did not go into much detail regarding the incident.<\/p>\n

“Welcome back to Kauffman Stadium<\/u><\/a>. I just wanted to … a little bit earlier in the show, I said something, didn\u2019t come out quite the way I wanted it to,” Kuiper said. “And I just wanted to apologize if it sounded different than I meant it to be said. And, like I said, I just wanted to apologize for that.”<\/p>\n

The A\u2019s issued a statement condemning<\/u><\/a> Kuiper\u2019s language.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“The language used by Glen Kuiper during today\u2019s pregame broadcast is unacceptable,” the A\u2019s posted to Twitter. “The Oakland Athletics<\/u><\/a> do not condone such language. We are working to address the situation.”<\/p>\n

Kuiper is in his 20th season calling games for the A\u2019s and has been covering baseball in the Bay Area since 1992, according to ESPN.<\/p>\n

Kuiper has been suspended and will be off the air until a review of the incident is completed.<\/p>\n
