UPDATE: It just gets worse. Bush?s BAC was?.180 following the accident. This article is downright sad, too. Asked by police if this was a wakeup call for Bush, he said ?already been there, made comments ?about having ?a serious alcohol problem and said how he ?will be unable to play baseball.?
UPDATE, Thursday, 11:48 PM:?It gets worse. Much worse. According to a?local NBC affiliate, Bush is responsible for a hit and run on a 72-year-old motorcyclist. ?Literally the tire on the SUV ran over the driver?s head,? said a witness to the crash. ?Without the helmet, the gentleman would have been dead instantly.?
Thursday, 11:39 PM: Matt Bush is again in serious legal trouble.
According to Roger Mooney of the Tampa Tribune, the former No. 1 overall pick (by the Padres in 2004) was arrested Thursday evening in Florida for driving under the influence, driving with a suspended-or-revoked license, fleeing the scene of a crime with an injury and ? to top it all off ? property damage.
Bush has been trying to revitalize his career as a reliever in the Rays? minor league system. But it seems likely that Tampa Bay?s decision-makers will opt to cut ties with him in the coming days.
The 26-year-old former shortstop has been in legal trouble throughout his professional baseball career. He was suspended shortly after being drafted by the Padres in ?04 for his role in a night club brawl in Arizona. And in the winter of 2009, he allegedly assaulted a couple of high school lacrosse players in the San Diego area while intoxicated:
A witness, who requested his name not be used because of the ongoing police investigation, said Bush was drunk, threw a golf club into the dirt, picked up and threw a freshman lacrosse player and hit another one. Bush also yelled ?I?m Matt (expletive) Bush,? and ?(expletive) East County,? before driving over a curb in his Mercedes when leaving the campus, according to the witness.
Bush registered a 4.83 ERA and 77/27 K/BB ratio in 50 1/3 innings last season at Double-A Montgomery.
