Former Detroit Tigers player Dmitri Young was sentenced Tuesday to a year of probation for assaulting his former girlfriend.
Young pleaded no contest in June to a domestic violence charge. He was accused of assaulting 21-year-old Michelle Schumaker at a Birmingham hotel April 14. Young had faced up to three months in jail and a $500 fine.
"I'm sorry that the incident happened," Young told Judge Diane D'Agostini. He then turned to Schumaker and said, "Michelle, I'd like to apologize for what happened and I wish you the best of luck."
