Mike Clevinger, pitcher for the Chicago White Sox, is facing new public scrutiny—this time over unpaid child support and court-ordered legal fees. The claim comes from Lindsey Hill, who posted on social media that Clevinger owes her friend, the mother of his child, more than $20,000.

Who Is Lindsey Hill?

Hill is known for accusing former MLB pitcher Trevor Bauer of sexual assault, which led to a high-profile legal battle and Bauer’s suspension from the league. In this case, Hill is not the mother of Clevinger’s child but says she’s speaking out on behalf of her friend.

According to Hill, Clevinger has not paid significant legal fees tied to a custody and support case. She also criticized the White Sox for continuing to employ him despite what she called a pattern of irresponsible and abusive behavior.

Mike Clevinger Abuse Allegations History

In 2023, MLB investigated Clevinger after similar accusations of abuse surfaced. The league ultimately chose not to discipline him, and Clevinger denied all allegations. Still, the investigation and media coverage damaged his reputation, and this latest situation is adding more fuel to the fire.

Is Mike Clevinger Paying Child Support?

As of now, there’s no official court confirmation on Hill’s specific claim. Clevinger hasn’t responded publicly to the accusation, and neither has the White Sox. But the $20,000 figure Hill cited is circulating widely, and the pressure is mounting for a response.
