Chapter[ VIII. Information Obtained Regarding Other Players’ Possession or Use of
Steroids and Human Growth Hormone ]
Section[ Howie Clark ]
Howie Clark
Howie Clark has played several positions for two teams in Major League Baseball
since 2002, the Baltimore Orioles and Toronto Blue Jays.
According to Radomski, Clark was introduced to him by Larry Bigbie. Radomski
said that Clark called him several times before buying anything. Radomski recalled that Clark
had done his own research about human growth hormone and had decided to use it. Radomski
said that he made four or five sales of human growth hormone to Clark and that Clark paid him
by money order or check.
Radomski produced two money orders received from Clark. They are dated
April 7 and May 19, 2005, and totaled $1,200. One is shown below; both are shown in the
Appendix. Radomski stated that these two money orders constituted payment for one kit of
human growth hormone.

In order to provide Clark with information about these allegations and to give him
an opportunity to respond, I asked him to meet with me; he declined.
Nook Logan is an outfielder who has played in Major League Baseball since 2004
for the Detroit Tigers and Washington Nationals.
Rondell White, a Tigers teammate, referred Logan to Radomski. Radomski stated
that he sold Logan one kit of human growth hormone just before federal agents searched
Radomski’s house in December 2005. Radomski mailed the package to Logan, who paid by
money order. Radomski recalled having between six and eight conversations with Logan about
the use of performance enhancing substances. In the course of one of these conversations, Logan
confirmed that he had received the shipment from Radomski. Radomski still had Logan’s phone
number in his cell phone directory at the time of his final interview with me and provided me
with the phone number.
In order to give Logan the opportunity to respond to these allegations, I asked him
to meet with me; he declined.
