Miguel Cabrera, ex-mistress square off in court; child-support decision expected in December

Detroit Tigers slugger Miguel Cabrera and his former mistress squared off in a Florida courtroom all last week, and there remains no resolution over how much he will be ordered to pay her in child support.

The case now heads to extra innings, with the parties scheduled to return to court in December. No specific date has been set. A final decision is expected by year's end.

Cabrera and the woman, Belkis Mariella Rodriguez, appeared before Judge Alan S. Apte in a bench trial in the Ninth Circuit Court of Florida in Orlando, Fla. The case was scheduled to play out Monday through Wednesday, but dragged into Thursday and Friday, and now will continue next month.
