Ueberroth proposes drug testing plan for MLB players
Baseball Commissioner Peter Ueberroth sent details of a drug testing program to players and the union, prompting a union challenge over authority. Testing would apply to players with drug-testing clauses and 21 named for prior drug involvement, with 11 agreeing to random testing to avoid suspensions. The union cites lack of authority and seeks talks, while 500 players reportedly consented via contract clauses. The program would be run from the commissioner's office, overseen by Dr. Anthony Daly, with confidential results and no penalties for initial positives.
