Wow, this guy went from a World Series to working in a department store? Sad. Does anybody remember this player? I think I do.
Former Major Leaguer Charged With Skipping Child Support
Holton Arrested At Manchester Discount Store
MANCHESTER, N.H. -- A former Major League baseball pitcher has been arrested on charges he skipped out on thousands of dollars of child support.
Former Baltimore Oriole and Los Angeles Dodger Brian Holton is being held in Manchester on charges from Wisconsin that he owes nearly $43,000 in child support.
Baseball-almanac.com says Holton, 46, earned $347,000 in his final year as a relief pitcher for the Orioles in 1990. He pitched for the Dodgers for four years in the 1980s and two years for the Orioles.
Holton lives in Manchester. He was arrested at his job at a discount store on Wednesday after police in Maquon, Wis., called Manchester police with word Holton was wanted.
Court records show Holton reported $12,166 income in 2004 and $17,517 in 2003.
