There were 3 options for the network: do nothing; suspension; fire him.
The announcer clearly did something wrong. He was trying to be cute (and what he was saying was respectful of the skill of one of the best players in baseball). But he also did something insensitive and racially offensive. Yeah, it was offensive. The network can't do nothing, here in 2021. You can't do sophomoric stuff like this to anyone on a national/international stage, especially to this season's MVP favorite. But if firing seems to be too over-the-top as well, then suspension it is.
