Dodgers Pitcher Arrested for California DUI in Los Angeles area

Ronald Belisario stopped for suspicion of drunk driving early Saturday morning.

Ronald Belisario, reliever for the LA Dodgers baseball team, was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence in California. Belisario was stopped near his Pasadena apartment by California Highway Patrol around 2:30 am for talking on his cell phone. He was arrested after showing “symptoms of possible alcohol intoxication”. Belisario was reportedly cooperative during the arrest and booking at the Pasadena Police Department.

The 26-year old relief pitcher is from Venezuela. He signed with the Dodgers last January as a free agent, after pitching two seasons with the Pittsburgh Pirates.

The Dodgers organization expressed disappointment in the CA DUI arrest and offered to provide any help they can. Coach Joe Torre felt it best for Belisario to seek legal guidance from a California DUI defense lawyer before commenting on the situation.
