Bally Sports Detroit and the Detroit Tigers have confirmed that Craig Monroe’s absence from their television broadcasts is due to allegations made on social media. The woman who made the accusations is a Twitter and Instagram user who claimed that Monroe raped her when she was a child while staying with her family in Port Charlotte during his time in the minor leagues.
On July 2, 2024, WDIV received a statement from Bally Sports Detroit and the Tigers addressing the situation. They stated that they are taking the allegations seriously and that Monroe has not appeared on any broadcasts since June 7-9 when the Tigers hosted the Milwaukee Brewers. Any further questions were directed to Monroe himself.
Monroe, a 47-year-old former baseball player, has been a member of the Tigers broadcast team for several years following his time playing in Detroit from 2003-2007. His MLB career spanned from 2001 to 2009 and included stops in Texas, Chicago (Cubs), Minnesota, and Pittsburgh.
Despite these accusations, Monroe has yet to make an official statement regarding them. It remains unclear whether he will continue to be absent from broadcasts or if he will return at a later date.
