The L.A. Angels suspended pitching coach Mickey Callaway Tuesday, one day after a report in ‘The Athletic’ alleged he’d “aggressively pursued” women in sports media.

The Angels said they “will work closely with Major League Baseball to conduct a full investigation.”

Callaway has denied wrongdoing. Five unnamed women told ‘The Athletic’ about actions over at least five years with three teams. Callaway was the

Cleveland Indians’ pitching coach before managing the N.Y. Mets from 2018 to 2019. After being fired, he was L.A.’s pitching coach last season.

The allegations include sending uninvited messages via email, text or social media, and sending three women inappropriate photos and asking one to send nude photos back.
