Will not do hard time on The Rochoric…
A former New York Mets clubhouse attendant who implicated dozens of major leaguers in the use of performance-enhancing drugs was sentenced Friday to five years’ probation and ordered to pay a $18,575 fine for distributing steroids and laundering money.
Kirk Radomski pleaded guilty in April 2007 to selling speed, steroids and HGH to dozens of players from 1995 until Dec. 14, 2005, when agents raided his Long Island, N.Y., home.
As part of his plea deal, Radomski was required to cooperate with investigators probing baseball’s doping scandal. He led investigators to Brian McNamee, the former New York Yankees strength coach who claimed he injected Roger Clemens with steroids and human growth hormone at least 16 times from 1998 to 2001, an allegation the pitcher vehemently denies.

"Radomski's downfall began in February 2005 when a person charged with real estate fraud who had a baseball contact agreed to work undercover with the FBI in exchange for leniency. The informant's contact put that person in touch with Radomski. The informant bought steroids and made numerous telephone calls to Radomski throughout 2005, with federal investigators watching and listening the entire time."
Who is the " baseball contact "?
