Series during his 2005-2012 stint, and Beckham was with the team

EAST LANSING, Mich. -- A doctor accused of sexually abusing two gymnasts was fired Tuesday by Michigan State University, which said its police have received additional allegations of abuse since last week.Two gymnasts, including a member of the 2000 U.S. womens Olympic team, have said they were sexually abused as teenagers by Larry Nassar, a former longtime doctor for USA Gymnastics. Those allegations came to light last week in a report by the Indianapolis Star newspaper.Michigan State, where Nassar was a faculty member, said last week that he was investigated in 2014 over another allegation of misconduct, but the school found no violation of its policy.School spokesman Jason Cody said Tuesday that since last week, university police have received more allegations of abuse by Nassar, spanning decades. Cody said Michigan State authorities are devoting significant resources to reviewing these accusations.Michigan State reassigned Nassar from clinical and patient duties as of Aug. 30, a day after a complaint from one of the gymnasts was made to authorities.Over the past week, the university received additional information that raised serious concerns about Nassars compliance with certain employment requirements, Cody said in a statement Tuesday. Those requirements were put in place after a 2014 investigation into alleged misconduct by Nassar, and information was received that indicates those requirements were not consistently met.Cody did not provide additional detail about what new requirements Nassar faced after the 2014 investigation.The decision was made to initiate the faculty process to terminate Nassars fixed-term appointment. On Sept. 20, he was fired, Codys statement said. It is important to note this decision does not affect the ongoing investigations by MSU Police and MSUs Office of Institutional Equity of allegations of sexual abuse.An attorney for Nassar declined to comment Tuesday.Nassar is accused of sexually groping and fondling an Olympic gymnast during her elite career, according to a lawsuit filed recently in California by the athlete under the name Jane Doe.Attorney John Manly, who is representing Jane Doe in the lawsuit, said he has been approached by 10 female athletes treated by Nassar, including gymnasts and athletes from other disciplines, since her lawsuit was filed. Manly said the accusers range in age from their teens to 40 and include former NCAA athletes, among others.Manly said he anticipates other cases being filed, predicting that Jane Does lawsuit is certainly not the last.The second gymnast, Rachael Denhollander of Louisville, Kentucky, told the Indianapolis Star that Nassar sexually abused her in 2000 while she underwent treatment for lower back pain at Michigan State. She said she filed a complaint last month with university police.The Associated Press typically does not identify people who say they have been sexually abused, but Denhollander is speaking out publicly about the case.Michigan State said last week that Nassar was investigated in 2014 when a graduate of the school filed a complaint. An administrative investigation found no violation of school policy, and the local prosecutors office did not file charges after an investigation by MSU police.USA Gymnastics said last week that it cut ties with Nassar when the organizations president, Steve Penny, went to authorities immediately after learning of athlete concerns about Nassar in the summer of 2015.Wholesale Custom Blue Jays Shirts .

Pierzynski and Tyler Flowers and infielder Gordon Beckham return to U.S. Cellular Field with the Braves to face their former team.It will be a fun experience, Flowers said. Ill see a lot of friends. A lot of the guys, Ive stayed in touch with, but I havent seen them in person in a while, so a little bit of that. Coaches and staff, some people that have definitely helped me along the way. It will be nice to have some handshakes and hugs and all that, and then strap it up and play ball and try to get some hits off (Chris) Sale and (Jose) Quintana.After the cheerful reunion, the Braves get to face Sale (14-2, 2.93 ERA), who leads the majors in victories and was named an All-Star for the fifth consecutive year. Sale is trying to become the first American League starter since the Blue Jays David Wells in 2000 to reach 15 victories before the All-Star break.Flowers downplayed having any edge as a hitter after catching Sale.Theres really no advantage, Flowers said. Its a completely different perspective standing sideways and looking to your left than squatting down and looking straight ahead. Plus, I called every pitch for those guys, so theres no telling what theyll throw now with different guys.Then Flowers offered some insight.For a guy like Sale, youve got to be ready for anything that you can touch out over the plate, Flowers said. He can vary his speeds and put pitches at different spots any time. Youve just got to hope for a mistake out over the platee and hope that youre ready for it.ddddddddddddThats how it is against all the aces in the league.Flowers played for the White Sox from 2009-15, while Pierzynski helped the team win the 2005 World Series during his 2005-2012 stint, and Beckham was with the team for parts of seven seasons.Flowers is hitting .249 with six home runs in 51 games. Pierzynski is batting .201 in 54 games. And Beckham came off the disabled list Thursday. He hit .284 before he went on the DL June 2 for a strained left hamstring.Now they play for the team with the worst record in the majors (29-57). The Braves snapped a four-game losing streak by beating the Chicago Cubs 4-3 in 11 innings early Friday morning in a rain-delayed game that made up an April 30 rainout. Flowers drove in the winning run in the 11th.Even though the record is not very good, weve had a lot of fun, some success, and a lot of growth as a whole -- particularly the pitching staff, Flowers said. That was a big part of coming here was to help their younger staff to develop.The White Sox (44-41) have won five straight series and seven of their last 10 games. They will face Braves starting right-hander Matt Wisler (3-8, 4.16 ERA), who has allowed 10 runs and struck out 21 in his last25 1/3 innings.The pitchings been great, White Sox manager Robin Ventura said.Offensively, weve been getting it. Everybody seems to be contributing in one way or another, and its nice. Were playing better baseball, its that simple.The teams last met in 2013. ' ' '
