The wife of San Francisco Giants pitcher Sean Hjelle spoke out against her husband on social media Friday, accusing him of “affairs” and “abuse.”
Caroline Hjelle posted a video on TikTok Friday of her and the couple’s two children with a caption that said, “When my MLB husband abandons us on Mothers Day a week after this (video was taken) once I finally found about his affairs and stopped putting up with his abuse, so I’ve been raising two boys alone.”

The Giants released a statement addressing the post.
“We are aware of these serious allegations. We have been in contact with MLB. These type of allegations fall under their jurisdiction, and we won’t be commenting further,” the statement said, per multiple reports.
Team manager Bob Melvin addressed the allegations at a team press conference ahead of the team’s game against the Boston Red Sox Saturday.
“Obviously we’re aware of it,” Melvin said. “He told me about it last night. We talked to MLB. At this point, it’s in their jurisdiction right now, so I really can’t comment on it further.”
Melvin added that Hjelle is available to pitch for the team.
Caroline Hjelle posted a cryptic message on TikTok April 8 with another video that included their sons.

Hjelle, 28, has a 4.66 ERA in six games this year.
