Pittsburgh Pirates vs. New York Mets – Game 34

Another Suspension But What Is a Performance Enhancer?
It’s a shockingly regular occurrence, an MLB superstar busted using “performance enhancing drugs”. This time it was Philadelphia catcher and fan favorite Carlos Ruiz. Ruiz failed his second test for amphetamines, more specifically Adderall. Adderall is a drug commonly prescribed to people that suffer from ADHD or those with difficulty focusing on tasks. It is mostly used…
