Trevor Bauer says he's grown from 'mistakes' in the past, hopes for 'second opportunity' in MLB

Former MLB star Trevor Bauer joins 'America's Newsroom' to share his story for the first time after being accused of sexual assault two years ago.

Trevor Bauer is hoping Major League Baseball will give him a second chance, as the pitcher remains a free agent months after he settled a high-profile legal dispute with a woman who accused him of beating and sexually assaulting her in 2021.

Bauer appeared on Fox News Channel’s "America’s Newsroom" on Thursday and said his agents have spoken to a number of different teams but no contract or spring training invite has come to fruition just yet. He talked about making "mistakes" during his life and what he is doing to rectify them.

I’m really detailed oriented when it comes to baseball and my training but I didn’t apply the same level of scrutiny to my personal life.

"I made mistakes. I agreed to do things I shouldn’t have done. I was reckless. It hurt a lot of people along the way. I made things very difficult for Major League Baseball, for the Dodgers, my teammates, my friends, family, people close to me. So, I’ve done a lot of reflecting on that and made a lot of changes in my life to address that. I’m not having casual sexual relationships anymore, for example."

Bauer said the way he has gone about things has been wrong and pinpointed interactions
