MILWAUKEE -- Cincinnati manager Bryan Price says he's sorry for using bad language. But he's standing firm on his stance that reporters are divulging too much information when reporting on team developments.

Price apologized to reporters in Milwaukee before the Brewers-Reds game on Tuesday for a profanity-laced tirade during a pregame meeting a day earlier. The apology echoed sentiments of an earlier apology issued through the team's Twitter account.

The Reds skipper stood by the context of his rant before Monday's win over the Brewers, that media shouldn't report developments he feels would put his team at a competitive disadvantage.

In front of TV cameras, Price said he used "a lot of bad language that I feel bad for in the aftermath. And I apologize for that."

He added that "The content between the profanity is exactly how I felt, and I won't apologize for that under any circumstances."

He apologized again after the cameras left the room.
