Matt Harvey, C.J. Cron among four MLB players to testify they got oxycodone from former Los Angeles Angels staffer Eric Kay

FORT WORTH, Texas -- Four major league players testified Tuesday they received oxycodone pills from a former Angels employee accused of providing Tyler Skaggs the drugs that led to the pitcher's overdose death.

Pitchers Matt Harvey, Mike Morin and Cam Bedrosian and first baseman C.J. Cron played for the Angels during the years federal prosecutors say Eric Prescott Kay obtained drugs for players. Kay faces drug distribution and conspiracy charges.

After saying he was subpoenaed and would have used his Fifth Amendment right not to testify without immunity, Harvey acknowledged being a cocaine user before and during his season with the Angels in 2019.
