German's leave extended through World Series
NEW YORK -- New York Yankees pitcher Domingo German's administrative leave under Major League Baseball's domestic violence policy has been extended through the World Series.
German was placed on leave for seven days last Thursday. Sources told ESPN's Buster Olney last week that German would not pitch again in 2019, and on Wednesday the league and the players' association agreed to the extension.
German is being investigated for an alleged domestic violence incident involving his girlfriend at home last week, The Associated Press reported last week.
