Ryan Braun, as expected, has issued a a statement apologizing and explaining his use of performance-enhancing drugs and accepting a 65-game suspension from baseball.
Braun also apologized to Dino Laurenzi Jr., the collector that mishandled Braun's urine sample, leading an arbitrator to throw out his suspension for a failed drug test last year. Braun did not mention his previous claims that Laurenzi was a Cubs-hating anti-Semite.
