Palmeiro Insists He Never Used Steroids

Rafael Palmeiro insists he never used performance-enhancing drugs despite having tested positive for a steroid just weeks after he reached 3,000 hits.
Palmeiro told Sports Illustrated on Wednesday that he hopes Hall of Fame voters will forgive his mistake of taking a tainted vitamin injection in 2005 while he was with the Orioles and elect him to the Hall in his first year of eligibility.
The four-time All-Star with 569 home runs and 3,020 hits famously wagged his finger at a congressional hearing in 2005 and asserted he never took performance-enhancing drugs.
