下面是他发表的部分道歉言论
“I’m sorry for the actions of the other day … it’s not something I
intended to be offensive … it’s just something I put on the sticker on my
face … it was nothing intentional directed at anyone in particular. ”I
have friends who are gay,” I have nothing against homosexuals … I am sorry
what will happen and it will never happen again in my career. It is a lesson
I have learned … I didn’t mean for this to be misinterpreted by the gay
community. I apologize.”
我不是故意要冒犯的 只是开开玩笑
我自己也有些同性恋朋友 并没有针对他们 我学到了一课然后我道歉

另一篇 Bud Selig’s statement about Yunel Escobar
“Major League Baseball supports today’s decision by the Blue Jays to
discipline Yunel Escobar and commends them for handling this situation
appropriately and promptly. It is important to note that in addition to
being suspended without pay, Mr. Escobar has agreed to complete a sensitivity
training program and will participate in a public outreach initiative aimed
towards promoting sensitivity and tolerance. I consistently say that
Baseball is a social institution with important social responsibilities and
that I expect those who represent Major League Baseball to act with the kind
of respect and sensitivity that the game’s diverse fan base deserves. Mr.
Escobar has admitted that his actions were a mistake and I am hopeful he can
use this unfortunate situation as an opportunity to educate himself and
others that intolerance has no place in our game or society.”
是 Selig大大的高见 http://bit.ly/UhXbEG
