Steroids and Human Growth Hormone ]
Section[ Kevin Young ]
Kevin Young
Kevin Young played as an infielder in Major League Baseball from 1992 until
2003, for the Pittsburgh Pirates for nearly his entire career and for the Kansas City Royals for
one season.
Radomski first met Young in New York City during the 2000-01 off-season.
Young later called Radomski. While Radomski could not remember who introduced him to
Young, he did remember that he was asked to bring two kits of human growth hormone to this
195
first meeting. Radomski said that he went to lunch with Young and afterward went up to
Young’s hotel room where Radomski sold him one or two kits of human growth hormone.
Young did not call Radomski again until 2003, during the final season of his
career. Radomski said that he sold Young five or six kits of human growth hormone on this
second occasion. He noted that he did not view this amount as unusual because Young needed
the human growth hormone to recover from lingering injuries, and Radomski believed a five or
six-month supply of human growth hormone was necessary to complete such a recovery.
Radomski stated that Young mailed $9,600 in cash to him as payment for this second
transaction.406
Young’s name, with multiple telephone numbers, is listed in the address book
seized from Radomski’s residence by federal agents.
In order to provide Young with information about these allegations and to give
him an opportunity to respond, I asked him to meet with me. He did not respond to my request.
