According to a report from WEEI’s Rob Bradford, Red Sox starting pitcher Steven Wright was arrested on domestic assault charges on Friday night. He was released Saturday morning.
Wright was also charged with preventing a 911 call.
The Red Sox are aware of the situation and released a statement Sunday night after the news became public.
'We are aware of the incident involving Steven. This is certainly a matter that the Red Sox take very seriously. It is my understanding that both local police and MLB are looking into this and for that reason, the club won’t have any further comment at this time.
