Los Angeles Dodgers' outfielder Manny Ramirez(notes) shirts and images are seen at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles on Friday, May 8, 2009.<br /><br />Ramirez was suspended for 50 games by Major League Baseball for a drug violation, adding a further stamp to what will forever be known as the Steroids Era.<br /><br />Ramirez will lose $7.7 million in salary, but the Dodgers stand to take a financial hit, too.

A pair of baggy black jeans hung inside his locker.

A nearly empty water bottle sat on a shelf. A pristine No. 99 jersey was ready to be slipped on. It looked as though Manny Ramirez had briefly stepped away instead of being suspended for 50 games a day earlier by Major League Baseball for a drug violation.
