MLB News: Report: Trevor Bauer wins settlement violation suit against accuser

A Los Angeles judge ruled on Monday that Lindsey Hill violated the terms of a settlement agreement with former major leaguer Trevor Bauer. As a result, Hill — who brought sexual assault allegations against the pitcher — was instructed to pay over $300,000 to Bauer.

Major League Baseball suspended Bauer in 2021 after Hill brought forth the allegations. The following year, MLB concluded its investigation and suspended Bauer, a 2020 Cy Young Award winner, for 324 games for sexual misconduct violations. The suspension was later decreased to 194 games.

Bauer, 34, sued Hill for defamation, but she countersued for assault and sexual battery. The two sides ultimately settled in 2023, although no money was exchanged between the pair.

At the time, Hill’s attorneys noted that she would receive a $300,000 insurance payment to go to her law firm. On social media, Hill said that Bauer “handed back an insurance sum to me that was meant for him in order for me to drop my countersuit.”

Bauer sued Hill again in October 2024, saying she violated the terms of the settlement agreement by saying on a podcast and social media that she received any money from the pitcher.

Bauer sought $10,000 for each of the 22 times Hill allegedly violated the agreement along with additional money for attorney fees and interest. That total equated to $309,832.02, which was more than Hill received in the insurance payment.

While Hill didn’t respond to the court regarding the new lawsuit, the judge originally said in February that Bauer did not have a strong enough case. Two months later, the judge contested the amount that Bauer’s team sought in attorney fees.

On Monday, with Hill still not responding to the suit, the judge ruled in Bauer’s favor and ordered Hill to pay the full amount requested by the pitcher.

Bauer was never charged with a crime and has not been picked up by a major league franchise since the Los Angeles Dodgers released him in early 2023. He has since played for Japanese and Mexican clubs.
