Ken Rosenthal is on an apology tour.
The Fox Sports reporter, who knocked over a cameraman and appeared to stand over him angrily, said it was an accident with someone he has known for years.
“I want to talk about what happened Saturday night when I accidentally bullied over Scott Paulus, the Brewers team photographer, while I was getting out of the way of the Brewers dumping water on Andruw Monasterio,” Rosenthal said on “Foul Territory.”
“Now the ever observant A.J. Pierzynski joked afterward that I looked like Muhammad Ali standing over Sonny Liston. Now, A.J., of course, is more experienced in these interactions than I am.

“I must admit, though, when I looked at the video and 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 afterward, I went up to Scott, whom I had worked with in the pit before over the years, and I apologized. I apologized profusely. Because let’s face it, I don’t expect knocking someone down to happen in any situation. And yeah, sure, I apologized. And Fox is doing the American League playoffs this year, so I won’t see the Brewers again unless it’s the World Series. But if I do see the Brewers in the World Series, I look forward to working with Scott again in the photo pit, and I also look forward to sharing a good laugh with him over this.”
