Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Walker Buehler was with his wife at Santa Anita Park in California back in September, when he ” was unknowingly the victim of a snatch and grab robbery of his watch,” per a statement from his reps via USA TODAY Sports.
How did that happen? According to ABC 7, “someone allegedly unbuttoned his shirt sleeve and took the watch” that was worth over $100,000.
The Arcadia Police Department said last week that Buehler was surrounded by suspects at the time and that’s how it all happened.
The case, they said, was under investigation. That’s all we know at the moment as Buehler continues to pitch in the NLCS.
