MLB investigation into Mariners finds no 'credible' evidence in Lorena Martin's allegations

Major League Baseball announced Wednesday that its investigation into Dr. Lorena Martin's allegations of workplace gender and racial discrimination against the Mariners found no "credible evidence."

The MLB had dispatched Epstein Becker and Green, an independent national law firm, to look into the matter. Lawyers from the firm interviewed 17 potential witnesses, including Martin, over the course of three months.

"The firm did not uncover credible evidence that the Mariners, or any of its employees, violated Major League Baseball's Workplace Code of Conduct, or applicable anti-discrimination law, in the treatment of Dr. Martin or the termination of her employment," MLB's statement read.
