Major League Baseball Players Association executive director Tony Clark resigned Tuesday after an internal investigation revealed an inappropriate relationship with his sister-in-law, who was hired by the union in 2023, sources told ESPN.
During the union's internal probe -- which came in the wake of a wide-ranging and still-open federal investigation into the MLBPA's finances and other alleged improprieties, including nepotism -- the relationship between Clark and the woman came to light, sources said, and prompted him to step down after more than a dozen years as the union's leader.
