SAN ANTONIO (AP) -Sentencing for former Oakland Athletics first baseman Troy Neel has been postponed until July 17.
Neel had been scheduled to appear in a San Antonio federal court Thursday to face sentencing on charges of fleeing the country to avoid paying more than $700,000 in unpaid child support. He faces up to two years in prison.
Neel pleaded guilty in May. State officials say Neel is the largest child support evader in Texas history.
He played for the A’s from 1992-94, then continued his career in Japan and South Korea before retiring in 2001.
