Brittany Ghiroli and Katie Strang of The Athletic reported Monday night that five women in sports media — all anonymous — are accusing former Mets manager and current Angels pitching coach Mickey Callaway of past lewd behavior. This behavior allegedly encompassed acts of Callaway sending inappropriate pictures, requesting naked pictures, asking a female reporter to get drunk with him, and thrusting his crotch into the face of one female reporter.
Mets owner Steve Cohen and president Sandy Alderson responded to the allegations.
“The conduct reported in The Athletic story [Monday] is completely unacceptable and would never be tolerated under my ownership,” said Cohen.
