Howard, Zimmerman fire back at Al Jazeera doping allegations
Ryan Howard and Ryan Zimmerman both played in the 2009 MLB All-Star Game.MLB stars Ryan Howard and Ryan Zimmerman were both named in an Al Jazeera exposé on "the secret world of sports doping."
In response, the lawyer for both players has issued a statement.
“It’s inexcusable and irresponsible that Al Jazeera would provide a platform and broadcast outright lies about Mr. Howard and Mr. Zimmerman,” said William Burck of the Quinn Emanuel firm.
“The extraordinary reckless claims made against our clients in this report are completely false and rely on a source who has already recanted his claims.
