According a new report, David Ortiz and Manny Ramirez are among the more than 100 baseball players who tested positive for steroids in 2003. The New York Times reports that lawyers involved in pending litigation over the results told it anonymously that David Ortiz and Manny Ramirez are among the names involved. The information is under seal by a court order. Ortiz declined comment to the paper but it is raising suspicions since the Boston Red Sox won their first World Series championship since 1918 in the following year, 2004. The results from the tests were supposed to remain hidden, but they later were seized by federal agents. David Ortiz and Manny Ramirez find himself on the same list that Alex Rodriguez was revealed to be on -- and he admitted using steroids because of that leak. Manny has already served a suspension for using steroids earlier this year, but it's the first blemish for Ortiz.
