Insider Ken Rosenthal Responds to Regrettable Viral Video
It was the most-watched baseball video on the internet this past weekend. Though noted insider Ken Rosenthal wished it hadn't been. The viral moment of Rosenthal backpedalling to get out of the way of a water bucket shower, and knocking over a Milwaukee Brewers cameraman, then appearing to stare down at him with a 'WTF' look, was certainly a bad look.
Don’t get in Ken Rosenthal’s way!

Ken Rosenthal being a complete asshole to a cameraman. He knocks him down, gives him a dirty look, doesn’t offer to help him up and then walks away shaking his head. Not shocked but happy the whole country got to see it today. pic.twitter.com/BDEkoOfTWg

Because of the traction this gained on social media, Rosenthal was compelled to address it on the Foul Territory podcast on Monday, and said he was 'surprised' and 'confused' by all the hubbub.

"I must admit... when I looked at the video, when I saw this, I was surprised at how upset I appeared. I was more confused than anything. Now I had to continue the interview. We were live, folks, on national television—couldn't stop. That said, I felt awful about what happened. And afterwards, I went up to Scott, who I've worked with in the pits before over the years, and I apologized. I apologized profusely...
"I look forward to sharing a good laugh with (Scott Paulus, the cameraman he inadvertently bowled over) over this."
