Manny being Manny gets suspened for 50 games

On May 7, 2009, Major League Baseball suspends Manny Ramirez for fifty games after he tests positive for the use of a banned substance. The 36 year-old Dodgers Star Outfield and most productive player, will not be eligible to return to the team until July 3, apologizes to the fans, explaining he did not take steroids, but was given a medication which a doctor thought was okay to be prescribed. He is the most prominent player yet caught under Major League Baseball’s PED policy implemented in 2005.
