Toronto Blue Jays catcher Reese McGuire was arrested in Florida last Friday afternoon for exposure of sexual organs, the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office said, according to Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.

The charge stems from the 24-year-old being seen inside an SUV exposing himself while parked in a public parking lot in Dunedin. The Blue Jays' spring training complex is located in Dunedin.

"The Toronto Blue Jays are aware of the recent police incident involving catcher Reese McGuire," the team said in a statement released on Wednesday. "He has been in communication with the Blue Jays and we are working to gather more information. Out of respect for the legal process, neither he nor the club will comment any further at this time."

McGuire has been given a March 16 court date at the Criminal Court Complex in Clearwater.
