   Former MLB All-Star Albert Belle was arrested in Scottsdale, Ariz., on   
   Sunday and charged with two counts of indecent exposure and two counts of   
   driving under the influence, according to Maricopa County online jail   
   records.   
      
   According to a statement from police that was filed as part of court   
   documents obtained by The Arizona Republic on Monday, Belle was arrested   
   outside a Phoenix soccer stadium for allegedly urinating next to a parked   
   car and shaking his genitals at the car's owner and his 15-year-old   
   daughter.   
      
   Belle, who was a five-time All-Star with the Cleveland Indians, Chicago   
   White Sox and Baltimore Orioles from 1989 to 2000, was booked into jail   
   Sunday and released the same day, Maricopa County Sheriff's Office   
   spokesperson Joaquin Enriquez confirmed to USA TODAY Sports.   
      
   A spokesperson for the arresting agency, the Salt River Police Department,   
   did not immediately reply to a request for comment from USA TODAY Sports   
   on Monday morning.   
      
   According to the probable cause statement filed in court documents Monday,   
   a man told police that his 15-year-old daughter saw Belle urinating next   
   to the driver's side door of his car in a parking lot outside Phoenix   
   Rising Stadium on Sunday night. When the man yelled at Belle, according to   
   the probable cause statement, Belle replied by shaking his genitals in the   
   direction of the man and his daughter.   
      
   When confronted by police, Belle, whose eyes were bloodshot and breath   
   smelled of alcohol, said he had exchanged words with the man but denied   
   urinating, according to the probable cause statement. Police found two wet   
   spots in the parking lot next to the car, according to the statement.   
   Belle also told police he had been driving.   
      
   Belle, 51, was arrested on suspicion of indecent exposure, driving under   
   the influence and DUI with a blood alcohol content of .08 or higher.   
      
   Often regarded as one of the best power hitters of his era, Belle hit 30   
   home runs or more in eight of his 12 MLB seasons and twice led the league   
   in RBI. He spent the majority of his career in Cleveland, where he   
   finished in the top three in American League MVP voting in three   
   consecutive seasons. He retired following the 2000 season.   
      
   Belle also became a relatively controversial figure for a variety of   
   incidents both on and off the field, from using a corked bat in 1994 to   
   allegedly chasing down teenagers who egged his house on Halloween. In   
   2006, Belle pleaded guilty to stalking his former girlfriend and was   
   sentenced to 90 days in jail and five years of supervised probation.
