Given what actually happened Jim's low-key response actually makes more sense. I don't think he saw the sh*tstorm that was coming.

 I read it.
I am certain that the outcome is not punishment, it's pretext:  for something Professional Baseball was looking to do anyway.
I agree that Evans didn't see the sh*tstorm coming.  Like I said previously, that is both clueless and sad.
Guys prancing around in [even fake-/ pseudo-/ mock-]  "KKK"  outfits, complete w/ pointy hats  in the South [which I am a proud part of]  and in front of  "the lone black employee"  can NEVER  be  "all in good fun" / 
"a bad joke never meant to hurt anyone".  You have to have been living under one hell of a rock for the last 40 years not to get that.
