Schumaker Defends Pujols Against PED Accusation

Skip Schumaker has come to the defense of former teammate Albert Pujols, who is disputing an allegation that he used performance-enhancing drugs.
Schumaker and Pujols were teammates with the St. Louis Cardinals from 2005-12.
"He's the most honest guy I've ever been around," Schumaker said. "He's a solid human being, a solid Christian. What he says is the truth. I’m 100 percent behind Albert. Everyone who has played with him is 100 percent behind Albert. What Jack [Clark] is doing is wrong."
Schumaker was very critical of Ryan Braun, who was suspended 65 games last month in the wake of the Biogenesis scandal.
Clark said on WGNU 920 AM in St. Louis that a former trainer told him Pujols used.
