CINCINNATI (AP) -The Cincinnati Reds on Monday signed a minor league contract with Jerry Hairston Jr., who was named in the Mitchell report.
The report says former New York Mets clubhouse attendant Kirk Radomski said he sold human growth hormone to Hairston on two or three occasions during 2003 and 2004. Radomski said he had one check from Hairston.
Hairston, an infielder who played with current Reds manager Dusty Baker in 2005-06 with the Chicago Cubs, spent the bulk of his 10 seasons with the Baltimore Orioles, from 1998 to 2004. He played for the Texas Rangers in 2006-07 and batted .189.
Hairston is the son of Jerry Hairston, grandson of Sammy Hairston, brother of Scott Hairston and nephew of Johnny Hairston – all major leaguers.
The Reds also signed outfielder Corey Patterson to a minor league contract. He played for the Cubs from 2000-2005 and for the Orioles in 2006-2007.
Both players are expected to report to camp Tuesday.
