Still don't see why the Braves signed him. I wonder if he gave tickets to inner city kids when he was playing, would that count as community service? That would be a good loop hole.Scott Spiezio pleaded guilty Monday to misdemeanor drunken driving and hit-and-run charges and received three years probation.
Spiezio will also undergo a three-month alcohol program, attend two Alcoholics Anonymous meetings and complete 80 hours of community service because of the incident that took place in December. The Braves surely knew that Spiezio would be facing this kind of punishment when they signing him to a minor league deal last week.
