Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Trevor Bauer had his hearing for the temporary restraining order that was filed against him delayed until Aug. 2.
Per ESPN’s Alden Gonzalez, Bauer’s camp requested additional time to prepare a defense after they only recently received medical records from the woman who has accused him of assaulting her.
TMZ Sports reported on June 30 that Law enforcement officials announced on June 30 that Bauer was being investigated over an alleged assault.
Marc Garelick, the woman’s attorney, told TMZ that his client was granted a temporary domestic violence restraining order against Bauer.
Bauer’s agent, Jon Fetterolf, issued a statement to TMZ denying the allegations.
“Mr. Bauer had a brief and wholly consensual sexual relationship initiated by [the accuser] beginning in April 2021,” Fetterolf said. “We have messages that show [the accuser] repeatedly asking for ‘rough’ sexual encounters involving requests to be ‘choked out’ and slapped in the face.”
Gonzalez noted the temporary restraining order against Bauer will remain in effect until the hearing is wrapped up.
Major League Baseball announced on July 2 that, in agreement with the MLB Players Association, Bauer was placed on seven-day administrative leave.
MLB has since extended Bauer’s administrative leave two additional times, most recently for a period of two weeks that will run through July 27. The league has the ability to request MLBPA for another extension.
Bauer hasn’t appeared in a game since June 28. The 30-year-old signed a three-year contract with the Dodgers during the offseason.
