Elijah Dukes Is Also On Pace For 756
756 kids, that is. We've chronicled the problems Dukes has had in the past, but things just keep getting rosier for the 22-year-old Devil Rays outfielder.
From the Times:
A 17-year-old foster girl living with a relative of Elijah Dukes told police the Devil Rays outfielder got her pregnant.Apparently if there is a female within 100 yards of Dukes, he just has to have (unprotected) sex with her. Remind you of any other pro athlete?
Detectives believe the sex was consensual and no crime was commited, but the incident has sparked a state investigation into the foster home.
The girl, expected to give birth Nov. 5, told investigators she and Dukes had consensual sex on the living room sofa. She said Dukes got angry when she and another person confronted him about the pregnancy.At least he handled it maturely and thoughtfully. His mom seems rather concerned about the direction Dukes' life is heading.
"Yeah, we sat down and told him and he got mad and threw a Gatorade at me," she told investigators.
Dukes' mother, Phyllis Dukes, said she didn't know about the allegations.Or not.
"He's doing well on the field," she said. "He's doing so good. It's just every time he turns around there's something coming at him."
