A Los Angeles Superior Court judge has ruled that Lindsey Hill, the woman who accused former Dodgers pitcher Trevor Bauer of sexual assault, must pay him more than $300,000 for violating the terms of their 2023 settlement. Settlement Terms Broken by Public Comments Hill accused Bauer in 2021, leading to a lengthy MLB investigation and a significant suspension for Bauer. Their lawsuits ended in a 2023 settlement where neither party was to pay the other. However, Hill’s violation came when she publicly discussed Bauer on podcasts and social media, breaking the agreement that prohibited such remarks. According to the court order by Judge Daniel Crowley, Hill owes Bauer a total of $309,832.02. This includes: Hill’s attorneys acknowledged that she received $300,000 from an insurance policy, but her subsequent public statements prompted Bauer to file a lawsuit in October 2024. Hill did not respond or contest the suit, leading to a default judgment in Bauer’s favor. Hill Defies Court Order, Bauer’s Team Responds Despite the ruling, Hill took to social media to declare she would not pay Bauer: Bauer’s agent, Rachel Luba, fired back on her own X account: Hill retorted by claiming she has protected her assets to avoid wage garnishment: Trevor Bauer’s Career and Ongoing Controversy Currently pitching in Japan’s Nippon Professional Baseball League, Bauer has been out of MLB for four years following the sexual assault allegations and MLB’s lengthy suspension, which was eventually reduced from 324 to 194 games. Despite the suspension ending, no MLB team has signed Bauer. He has publicly criticized MLB, suggesting the league is responsible for his continued absence from the majors, rather than a lack of talent. In a recent X post, Bauer questioned MLB’s decisions on reinstatements: Do you think Trevor Bauer should be signed back into the MLB? Let us know your thoughts.

The Los Angeles Dodgers struggled against the New York Mets on Wednesday night, losing 6-1 in the penultimate game of their four-game series. The Mets jumped ahead quickly thanks to aggressive play. After a hit-by-pitch and a Dodgers fielding error loaded the bases with no outs, Juan Soto drove in the first run on a ground out. Soon after, Pete Alonso launched a two-run homer, giving the Mets a 3-0 lead in the first inning. Strong Pitching From Both Sides Dodgers starter Tony Gonsolin pitched five innings, allowing three runs on three hits while striking out six. Meanwhile, Mets starter Griffin Canning dominated the Dodgers lineup, holding them to just three base runners in the first four innings and earning six shutout innings with seven strikeouts. Dodgers’ Late Response Falls Short They struggled to generate offense until the eighth inning when Andy Pages hit a solo home run, ending the shutout bid. Despite putting runners on base multiple times, the Dodgers were repeatedly undone by strikeouts, leaving scoring opportunities unconverted. The Dodgers will look to avoid a series loss on Thursday afternoon with Landon Knack starting against Mets’ David Peterson. After this series, Los Angeles heads to the Midwest for a matchup against the St. Louis Cardinals.

He broke multiple scoring and 3-point records and was a two-time ACC Player of the Year. 4. Zion Williamson Though Zion played only one season, his impact was massive. He brought unmatched athleticism and energy, becoming one of the most watched players in Duke history. 5. Johnny Dawkins Dawkins was Coach K’s first true star and helped put Duke on the national map in the 1980s. His scoring ability and leadership were critical in Duke’s rise to prominence. Honorable Mentions Shane Battier, Elton Brand, Jason Williams, Bobby Hurley, Danny Ferry.
