Members of the Milwaukee Brewers welcomed Ryan Braun's admission that he used performance-enhancing drugs as they hope it helps to heal the wound of his 65-game suspension.
"I thought it was a good first step on the road to redemption, I guess you could say," Jonathan Lucroy said.
Several Brewers, including Lucroy, have stayed in touch with Braun by phone since he agreed to Major League Baseball's suspension on June 22.
"It certainly was enough for me," Ron Roenicke said. "I think it's enough for his teammates. He's made some calls to his teammates.
"I think no matter what he says, there's going to be some negative from a lot of people still: 'He didn't say enough (or) he didn't explain himself enough.' I think he did. And I also think there are some things he probably still can't say. As I read into how he said it, I think there are some things that probably he can't bring up. That's OK with me."
