It's very simple. We are asking baseball to come clean and set the record straight. Either baseball officials seriously want to rid their sport of doping, or they want to brush the issue under the carpet. So far, we haven't seen much evidence of the former.
很简单。我们要求棒球坦白交代，澄清事实。棒球官员要么是认真地想让他们的运动摆脱兴奋剂，要么就是想把这个问题掩盖起来。到目前为止，我们还没有看到太多关于前者的证据。
