During an NCAA baseball tournament game between Wake Forest and Tennessee, manager Tom Walter allegedly directed an anti-gay slur at opposing player Andrew Fischer. The incident occurred when Fischer stepped into the batter's box, with viewers capturing Walter seemingly yelling the slur during the broadcast. Following Fischer's at-bat, he contributed to Tennessee's lead by hitting a two-run home run. While there was significant social media backlash against Walter's comments, he did not address the incident during the post-game press conference, focusing instead on praising the Tennessee fanbase.
If any of us were caught on video saying what Tom Walter said tonight, we would be fired. Or, at the very least, we would be forced to attend classes and learn why you can't call anyone that.
Walter was seen saying something in Fischer's direction though it wasn't clear if he was saying it to him. It appeared as though Walter yelled, Fucking f*ggot.
