The Astros say they ''do not condone'' a tweet posted by one of their minor league infielders criticizing broadcaster Jessica Mendoza during ESPN's broadcast of Tuesday night's NL wild-card game. Screen grabs of the tweet showed second baseman Brooks Marlow wrote ''no lady needs to be on espn talking during a baseball game specially Mendoza sorry.'' The team also apologized to Mendoza, calling her ''an outstanding broadcaster that we have had the pleasure of working with this season.'' Mendoza, a former professional softball player, began broadcasting games for ESPN in 2015. She's a member of ESPN's ''Sunday Night Baseball'' broadcast team and the most prominent woman calling national games from the booth for a major men's spots.
