The San Francisco Giants have suspended outfielder Harrison Bader's pay after he reportedly crashed a scooter into a fire engine last weekend, further injuring a foot that had already landed him on the injured list.
Bader was on the IL with plantar fasciitis when the accident occurred, according to reports. The team's decision to dock his pay follows the late-night incident, which worsened the existing injury.
The Giants have not announced how long the suspension will last or whether Bader will face additional disciplinary measures. Bader, who joined the team this season, has been sidelined since the foot issue flared up.
The suspension means Bader will forfeit salary for the time he misses while suspended, though the exact financial impact has not been disclosed. The team has not commented further on the matter.
