Palmeiro Suspended Ten Games For Steroids Use
Rafael Palmeiro, Baltimore Orioles first baseman, was suspended 10 games after a positive steroid test. The 40 year old, who had testified before Congress that he never used steroids, faced ongoing controversy as he became the highest profile player among seven to fail the league's new policy. The suspension, decided by the commissioner's office and not overturned by arbitrator Shyam Das, followed a muted public explanation from Palmeiro during a conference call.
