Major League Baseball is investigating free agent pitcher Sam Dyson for domestic violence, according to The Athletic.
The investigation comes after Dyson's ex-girlfriend, Alexis Blackburn, accused an unnamed person of domestic violence in two Instagram posts. The first came on her personal Instagram account and the second on the Instagram account she publishes in the name of her cat, Snuckles. The Athletic said it received confirmation from a source that Blackburn was writing about Dyson.
Sources told the website that MLB became aware of the situation this week and opened an investigation that will include interviewing Dyson in the near future.
