Los Angeles Dodgers star Trevor Bauer is used to being in the spotlight. He’s outspoken and doesn’t shy away from controversy, which is why he’s one of the biggest characters in all of Major League Baseball.

Nonetheless, he’s recently been all over the news for the wrong reasons, as a woman accused him of sexual assault and even tried to file a restraining order against him. Obviously, he hasn’t been allowed to pitch ever since.

Bauer and his camp alleged that the woman is just trying to shake him down and frame him with false evidence. And, whether that’s true or not, at least he got a big win on the court a couple of days ago.

Judge Denies Restraining Order Against Trevor Bauer

According to a report by Steve Henson of the LA Times, a judge denied the restraining order petition against him. So, while it’s unclear what effect will that have on his paid leave, it’s clearly a positive sign for him.

“The court denies the request for a long-term restraining order. Judge: “If she set limits and he exceeded them, this case would be clear. But he did not exceed limits she set.” . . . Bauer won the hearing. Totally unclear what it means to MLB or to potential criminal charges,” tweeted Henson.

Bauer Breaks The Silence

A couple of days ago, the Cy Young Award winner broke the silence regarding his current situation. He addressed some of the allegations made by The Washington Post to try and clear his name:

“While I have allowed my representatives to speak on my behalf over the last six weeks, I can no longer be silent. I will speak very candidly about the current petition when appropriate, but need to address the allegations made today in The Washington Post,” Bauer tweeted along with some pictures.

While the criminal charges haven’t been dropped as of now, Bauer’s camp has shared proof that doesn’t exactly make his accuser look good. For now, it seems like it’s only a matter of time before he’s reinstated and back on the mound.
