Cincinnati Reds right-hander Trevor Bauer's phone number was made public by ESPN in what he called a "massive screw up" during a Korean Baseball Organization broadcast Sunday morning.

Bauer was taking part in a multi-inning conversation with ESPN's Jon Sciambi and Jessica Mendoza via video call. The pitcher decided to make the best of a bad situation, though, by creating a giveaway that required fans to call his voicemail for instructions on how to win.

If you didn't try calling the former All-Star, this is apparently what his voicemail sounded like.

However, the voicemail now seems to be full and the number has been disconnected.
