Harrisburg, Pa. — A minor league player in the Washington Nationals organization has been charged with having sex with a 15-year-old girl.

Harrisburg Senators outfielder Garrett Guzman had sex with the girl in late July, police alleged in documents filed in district court Sept. 4. Guzman was charged with a misdemeanor count of corruption of minors.

Guzman hasn’t been arraigned and court officials said the 25-year-old doesn’t have a lawyer on record.

Senators general manager Randy Whitaker declined to comment. A message with the Nationals wasn’t immediately returned.

Guzman hit .247 with nine home runs and 63 RBIs in 124 games overall for Triple-A Columbus and Double-A Harrisburg.
