Former Minnesota Twins star Chuck Knoblauch was arrested Wednesday night on charges that he allegedly assaulted his ex-wife, KHOU.com reported.
The Twins issued a statement Thursday saying that Knoblauch's scheduled induction into the team's Hall of Fame had been canceled. Knoblauch was slated to be honored by the team August 23 at Target Field.
The Twins did not directly address the details of the report in their statement but did reference the fact that their decision was made "in light of recent news reports" and after "direct communication" with Knoblauch.
According to the report, Knoblauch was arrested after allegedly hitting his ex-wife and released after posting $10,000 bond.
Knoblauch divorced Cheri Knoblauch in 2012. He was convicted of hitting a previous wife in 2010 and sentenced to a year of probation.
Knoblauch was the 1991 Rookie of the Year and a four-time All-Star with the Twins.

If he tried throwing a baseball at his wife instead of assaulting her..he's be a lot better off as he'd miss by six feet.
