LOS ANGELES (AP) — An attorney for Trevor Bauer asked a woman why she left out “dozens of key facts” in her petition for a five-year restraining order against the Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher. The woman said “I don’t know” during her second day of testimony. Attorney Shawn Holley challenged the woman over why she omitted friendly texts to Bauer from her declaration, and why she spent the night in Bauer’s bed after having traumatic sexual experiences with him. The woman testified earlier that Bauer choked her into unconsciousness and punched her repeatedly. Bauer has said through representatives that everything that happened was consensual.
