Bauer’s administrative leave extended through Aug. 13

NEW YORK (AP) — Trevor Bauer’s administrative leave has been extended for seven days through Aug. 13 by Major League Baseball and the players’ association while the sport’s investigators check into allegations of sexual misconduct against the Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher. Bauer was placed on seven days’ paid leave on July 2 under the joint domestic violence, sexual assault and child abuse policy adopted by MLB and the players’ union in 2015. MLB and the union have agreed to four extensions. Police in Pasadena, California, and MLB are investigating allegations made against Bauer by a Southern California woman. Bauer’s representatives deny the allegations.
