Major League Baseball announced on Sunday that Chicago White Sox pitcher Mike Clevinger will not face punishment under the league’s joint domestic violence, sexual assault and child abuse policies following an investigation.

Clevinger was accused of domestic violence by the mother of one of his children in January in an Instagram post that included images of marks on her body.

The 32-year-old pitcher has voluntarily agreed to be reviewed by treatment committees that deal with domestic violence and “substance abuse” and to comply with the committees’ recommendations.

It is not clear whether Clevinger violated the league’s policies on domestic violence, sexual assault or child abuse

Olivia Finestead showed footage supposedly “of him throwing an iPad at me while pregnant” and that she “finally left when he choked me.”

“Mike Clevinger you really deserve the hell I’ve been detained for almost a year now and you continue to covertly abuse your child,” Finestead said — also accusing him of throwing “chew spit on our baby” and illegal use drugs.

The league released a statement on Sunday announcing the closure of the investigation following “interviews with more than 15 individuals, in addition to Mr. Clevinger and the complainant, as well as a review of available documents.”

Clevinger released a statement after the decision was announced, saying, “I’m glad Major League Baseball has completed its investigation.

“I had nothing to hide and I fully cooperated with MLB. This situation has been stressful for my family and I thank them for their strength and support.

“I’ve asked everyone not to rush into judgment until the MLB’s investigation is complete, and I appreciate everyone who had faith in me, including the White Sox organization and my teammates.

“I’m looking forward to the 2023 season and help the White Sox win a championship this year.”

Clevinger signed a one-year, $8 million contract in December — which predates the Finestead allegations. The contract has a mutual option for 2024 with a price tag of $12 million.

The White Sox were not informed that he was under investigation, in accordance with collective bargaining policy.

According to ESPN, 15 players have been suspended for violating domestic violence, sexual assault and child abuse policies since they were introduced in 2015.

Former Dodgers pitcher Trevor Bauer received the longest suspension for violating this policy at 324 games – which was later downgraded to 194 games on an appeal.

Last season, Cleving appeared in 23 games for the San Diego Padres, recording a 7-7 record over 22 starts with a 4.33 ERA and 91 strikeouts. In two postseason starts, he gave up eight runs, earning seven with a staggering 23.63 ERA.

He missed the previous 2021 season after undergoing Tommy John surgery to repair his throwing arm.
