OXFORD, Miss. (AP) — Colorado Rockies pitcher Drew Pomeranz was arrested early Friday morning, accused of disturbing the peace in Oxford, Miss.

Oxford police arrested Pomeranz at 1:25 a.m.; he was released on a cash bond at 4:40 a.m. Pomeranz was listed in jail documents by his first name Thomas.

The left-handed pitcher, who was part of the Ubaldo Jimenez trade, made his major league debut in September. Pomeranz was 2-1 with a 5.40 ERA in four starts for the Rockies. He struck out 13 and walked five in 18.1 innings.

An All-American at Ole Miss in Oxford, Pomeranz was drafted fifth overall in the 2010 MLB draft by the Cleveland Indians.
