Samantha Bracksieck's arrest for DUI
Unfortunately, unwanted attention shined upon the couple in 2020 after cops pulled over Samantha Bracksieck in Scottsdale, Arizona, as she was driving with her headlights off and going 10 miles per hour over the speed limit. She then later admitted that she had wine at Mastro’s Steakhouse before driving.
TMZ Sports reported that police body cam video recorded her namedropping the Yankees’ right fielder in an attempt to get out of the situation.
“Do you know who my boyfriend is?!” Samantha said at one point during the arrest. “My boyfriend is not in a spot where I should be, like, having this happen.”
“He's like a public figure. So, like, me being arrested for, like, having two glasses of wine is not OK.” Samantha added.
Samantha Bracksieck was hit with five charges, including extreme DUI as she had a blood alcohol concentration between .15 to .19.

In the plea deal Bracksieck agreed to attend alcohol abuse screening and complete any recommended treatments. On top of that, she agreed to pay a fine of $2,000.
