MLB investigating Omar Vizquel over domestic abuse allegations: report
MLB is reportedly investigating allegations that legendary shortstop Omar Vizquel abused his estranged wife, physically and emotionally, for years before she finally fled the relationship in August out of fear for her own safety. Blanca Vizquel, 36, detailed her allegations of abuse in an article published by The Athletic months after she says she got up one morning and decided to flee the couple’s home in Arizona where she then drove 10 hours to a women’s shelter in Texas, ending her six-year marriage with Omar Vizquel.
