Kiyohara and Drugs

A former top professional baseball star Kiyohara Kazuhiro has arrested for possessing illegal drugs at his apartment. The news was spread out late at night yesterday. I wasn't surprised at the news because there was a rumor that Kiyohara had been hospitalized due to drug use. A weekly magazine reported that several years ago. 

Even though he had had that suspicion of drug use since the magazine was published, many Japanese people might be shocked by the arrest. Kiyohara was definitely a baseball super star in Japan. He grabbed many Championship Flags of NPB, got some MVP titles and made hundreds of home runs. This was a real betrayal for baseball fans.
