NEW YORK (AP) -- Ryan Braun made only a passing reference to his positive drug test and possible 50-game suspension as he accepted the National League MVP award at a black-tie dinner.
After congratulating other award winners Saturday night and thanking teammates, family, and the Milwaukee organization, the Brewers left fielder, speaking before a crowd of around 800 in a hotel ballroom, thanked the Major League Baseball Players Association for supporting him through his entire career, "especially for supporting me through everything I've went through over the last couple of months."
"You know, sometimes in life, we all deal with challenges we never expected to endure," Braun said. "We have an opportunity to look at those challenges and view them either as obstacles or as opportunities."
