Cincinnati Reds legend Johnny Bench apologized Sunday for an antisemitic joke he made during a team event the previous day.
The Reds were holding a news conference for the team hall of fame inductions for former general manager Gabe Paul and pitchers Danny Graves and Bronson Arroyo. Pete Rose began telling a story of how Paul, who died in 1998 and was represented by his daughter Jennie Paul, signed him for $400 per month out of high school, prompting someone to yell"that's cheap!"
Bench then interjected with"He was Jewish!" Several people loudly laughed at the joke, though a few others, including Rose, simply looked stunned.
