New York — A Hearst Corp. lawyer asked a federal judge Monday to schedule oral arguments in the company's attempt to make public the names of baseball players implicated in obtaining steroids.
Hearst Corp. filed court papers in June to reveal a complete copy of a December 2005 sworn statement by IRS Special Agent Jeff Novitzky used to obtain a search warrant for the home of former New York Mets clubhouse attendant Kirk Radomski. The government said former players were supplied drugs by Radomski, but the names of about two dozen players were blacked out when the search warrant was unsealed in April.
