Trevor Bauer’s – Trevor Bauer was spotted at the scene of a crash in Arizona with his black McLaren badly wrecked, with police responding and no one transported for treatment. The former Cy Young winner was driving in the area marked by a 45 mph speed limit, and he remains hop
Trevor Bauer was out documenting the damage when the black McLaren he was driving came apart in an Arizona collision on Wednesday.
Video from the scene shows debris scattered across the road and in a nearby yard. while another vehicle rests on the sidewalk of a residential street. Bauer. the former MLB pitcher and current Long Island Ducks starter. was seen taking in the wreckage after cops responded to the incident. No one was transported for treatment. and the video also captures that the posted speed limit in the area is 45 miles per hour.
What happened next remains unclear. Sources close to Bauer say he was driving at the speed limit when another driver crashed into the side of him.
For Bauer. the crash is another sudden rupture on top of a medical setback that has kept him off the field at the moment. The 35-year-old is currently on the injured list with back spasms in the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball. and he’s been in Arizona getting treatment. Even with that in mind. he has sounded hopeful about a return to the big leagues and has offered to play for free.
The sequence of facts keeps tightening around the same theme: a costly car wreck. a quick police response. and an injured player still working toward the next chapter. The collision’s cause is still unknown. but the framing from those close to Bauer—driving within the posted limit and being hit—sits directly against the visible chaos on the roadway.
Bauer’s relationship with expensive transportation has not been smooth before. In 2019, his 2016 McLaren 650S was parked at a local dealership when a tire flew off a semi-truck and landed on top of it.
His baseball road has also been complicated. Bauer hasn’t played in MLB since 2021, after a San Diego woman made sexual assault allegations. He was never criminally charged and has maintained his innocence, but he was suspended 324 games, before it was reduced to 194.
With the Long Island Ducks, the on-field numbers have been steady enough to stand out. Bauer has a 4-1 record and a 2.43 ERA with 56 strikeouts. He’s been doing well after the crash. and as he continues treatment in Arizona. the question now is what the collision changes—if anything—about his push to get back to MLB.
