The Lancaster Barnstormers, a professional baseball team in Pennsylvania, has cut outfielder Danry Vasquez after a 2016 disgusting video surfaced showing him mercilessly beating a female while attending a game.
At the time of the incident, Vasquez was playing for the above team — the AA minor league affiliate of the Houston Astros. The team released him days after the incident.
Vasquez was arrested for domestic violence in Texas back in August 2016 — and despite the fact officials had the video showing him backhanding the woman in the face and continuing to beat her while dragging her down a stairwell … he basically got off with a slap on the wrist. source
Nueces County District Attorney Mark Gonzalez told TMZ Sports the victim did not want to cooperate with prosecutors and wanted the case dropped.
Prosecutors wanted to press but felt it was an uphill battle with the victim not wanting to press charges. Ultimately, Vasquez was ordered to complete anger management courses … and that’s basically it.
Gonzalez says Vasquez has now completed the terms of his probation and the case was formally dismissed on March 6.
