Allegations of domestic violence against Tampa Bay Rays catcher Derek Norris are under investigation by MLB following a post made on Instagram by his ex-fiancée Kristen Eck according to a report by Jerry Crasnick of ESPN, which was confirmed by MLB.
The post, which became known on Tuesday, did not identify Norris by name, but in an interview with MLB Network two years ago, Eck discussed a charity that the wives and girlfriends of San Diego Padres players were having, and identified Norris as her fiancée.
Eck wrote that she had been “physically and emotionally abused by this beautiful man I thought I was going to marry.
