NEW YORK -- Former New York Mets acting general manager Zack Scott was acquitted Thursday of drunken-driving charges stemming from his arrest last August after he attended a fundraiser at team owner Steve Cohen's house, his attorney announced.

"Today, after hearing and seeing all the evidence against our client, a judge in the White Plains City Court acquitted Zack Scott of all criminal charges against him," lawyer Bruce Bendish said in a statement. "We are grateful for the judge's diligent attention and consideration of the evidence, and believe he arrived at the only conclusion possible.
