Betsy Bissen, a photographer for Twins Daily, has accused Minnesota Twins third baseman Miguel Sano of sexual misconduct after an autograph signing.
Bissen wrote a detailed account of her encounter involving Sano on Twitter:
The 24-year-old Sano could be subject to a suspension under MLB's domestic violence policy.
Per the policy the league implemented in 2015, the commissioner's office "will investigate all allegations of domestic violence, sexual assault and child abuse involving members of the baseball community."
The commissioner also has the authority to place a player accused of abuse or assault on paid administrative leave for up to seven days during the investigation.
