Rangers Players Rally Around Manager Washington After Drug Admission

Texas Rangers manager Ron Washington has admitted to using cocaine after reports surfaced that he had failed a drug test. Now, the guys counting on Washington are rallying around their coach to support him.

“I’ve got his back,‘’ Young told the group, according to sources. "Anybody who doesn’t feel that way isn’t a Texas Ranger.’’

“I was an addict,‘’ said [Josh] Hamilton, who had a relapse involving alcohol use 15 months ago. "All I cared about was getting more and using more drugs. I didn’t care who I hurt.

“He made a mistake one time. Our stories are nothing alike. He came forward. He took it like a man. I think Wash handled it well. It’s a privilege to be a spokesman for him. I feel nothing less about Wash. He’s learned from this.’’
