Mitch Williams Wins $1.5M Lawsuit Against MLB Network 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Thu Jun 22, 2017 2:23 pm

A jury has awarded former Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Mitch Williams $1.5 million in a civil case against MLB Network after he was fired following reports about his conduct at a Little League game.

The pitcher sued the network after it fired him from his analyst job in 2014, claiming he violated a morals clause.

MLB Network said it respects the jury's Tuesday decision but disagrees with its conclusions and is reviewing its legal options.
