Coco Crisp CF Oakland A's
31 year old Oakland Athletics CF Coco Crisp, who has also played for the Cleveland Indians, Boston Redsox, and Kansas City Royals, was celebrating spring training a little too hard when he got arrested for suspicion of DUI. He becomes the third MLB player arrested for DUI since spring training started.
Driving his Rolles Royce, he was pulled over for failing to maintain his lane of traffic. He took sobriety tests, which he obviously failed, and was arrested with no further incidents.
The Oakland A's released the following statement regarding the situation:
"Coco Crisp was arrested and detained early this morning under the suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol. He was released from the city of Scottsdale jail this morning and arrived at Phoenix Municipal Stadium on time for team pregame drills. The A's are aware of the situation and take such matters seriously. The team and Coco will have no further comment until further details are available."
