Pat Mahomes sentenced to probation in DWI case

Former major league pitcher Pat Mahomes agreed to five years of probation as part of his guilty plea to a third driving while intoxicated charge on Tuesday.

The agreement includes one year of "intense supervision," and should he live up to the terms of probation, he will not serve prison time.

Mahomes will be formally sentenced Sept. 23 in district court in Smith County, Texas.

The father of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, the elder Mahomes previously was arrested on DWI charges in 2008 in South Dakota and February 2019 in Smith County. In the most recent case, he was arrested in February on a third-degree felony charge after he failed several field sobriety tests when stopped by police in Tyler, Texas.

Mahomes, 54, pitched for six teams from 1992-2003. He had a career 42-39 record.
