Kuo Tests Positive For Stimulants, Official Blames Cold Medicine

Dodgers pitcher Hong-Chih Kuo tested positive for stimulants but officials blamed cold medicine for the results, according to the AP.
Kevin Chen, secretary general of Taiwan's Olympic Committee, said samples taken from Kuo, as well as two other members of the baseball team, Yeh Chun-chang and Lin Yi-chuan, tested positive for banned drugs before the December Doha competition.

China Times said Kuo didn't pitch against Japan because he had taken pain medication and that his pitching wasn't in good shape.

Hey, Rob -- not to be difficult, but your headline is a bit misleading. It was *officially* found to be due to cold medicine, which is different than Kuo just blaming it on cold medicine.
 
You're right. Corrected.
 
Awesome, thanks.
 
Per actual news reports in Taiwan, it's actually Kuo told and explained to the officials that it's likely due to the medications. The official was simply making a statement based on Kuo's explanation.
