- Pitcher allegedly punched woman while she was passed out
- Bauer’s representatives say relationship was consensual
A woman alleges Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Trevor Bauer strangled her unconscious and punched her, leaving her with injuries that needed to be treated in hospital. The woman made the allegations in a domestic violence restraining order against the player filed on Monday.
Police are investigating the allegations, which are said to have occurred at Bauer’s home in Pasadena, California. However, in the order the woman says: “I am deeply concerned that no arrest has been made or charges filed.” She provides photos of her injuries, which she said required hospital treatment. They include bruises and scratches to her face.
