reported that Rivera and Gaete both tried to interview New York Yankees player Aaron Judge on April 18. Rivera alleged that she had previously scheduled an interview with Judge but Gaete ignored her. During the exchange, Rivera hurled an expletive that starts with the letter “c” and was captured on video.
“I fully accept responsibility for what I said, which I should not have,” Rivera said. “There were extenuating circumstances but that in no way is an excuse for my actions.” Rivera says that over the years in covering the MLB she has had disagreements with MLB’s vice president of communications, who happens to be married to Gaete.

Rivera, who has covered the Yankees and the MLB at large for ESPN and ESPN Deportes, said that she apologized to Gaete over the insult but she did not accept.
