Hiroshima “Future contract is undecided” Batista will be suspended September 3 16:15
Pro Baseball Hiroshima has been positively tested for doping, and NPB = Japan Baseball Organization has been suspended for six months. We will continue to investigate the cause.
Hiroshima was notified that Batista had tested positive for the banned drug in the doping test, and on the 17th of last month, the 1st Army player registration was deleted, and the punishment was suspended.
According to the team, after that, Batista insisted that he had never ingested such a substance, and he tested the supplements made overseas.
As a result, it was ingested that there were two types, one of which was not confirmed as a banned drug, and the other was not at hand and could not be tested.
The team has not yet decided on a future contract with Batista, and commented, “I apologize and deeply apologize and inconvenience the NPB and fans.”
And while continuing to investigate the cause of the banned drug detection, we will take care and take measures against intake of supplements.
