Manny Ramirez, breaking his public silence since being suspended May 7 for violating baseball's drug policy, said Tuesday that the incident was "in the past" and that he wanted to "move on."

The Dodgers' slugger said he had no plans to publicly explain exactly how he violated Major League Baseball's policy against using banned substances.

Ramirez also conceded he let down his fans, but said he would "make it up" by leading "this team to another level" after his suspension ends July 3.

"Whatever happened, that's in the past and I'm coming to play my game," Ramirez said a few hours before the Dodgers hit four home runs to beat the San Diego Padres, 6-4, at Dodger Stadium. "I don't want to be a distraction for this team.

"I spoke to Frank McCourt, I apologized, I spoke to Joe, my teammates and I'm ready to move on," he said of the club's owner and Manager Joe Torre.

"I didn't kill nobody, I didn't rape nobody, so that's it, I'm just going to come and play the game," Ramirez said.

Asked if he was sorry for his actions, the 37-year-old All-Star outfielder replied, "That's what I said."

His comments came during an impromptu meeting with a handful of reporters in the Dodgers' clubhouse, where a cheerful Ramirez greeted and hugged several teammates before they took batting practice ahead of their game against the Padres.

Ramirez, whose suspension requires that he leave the stadium before the public gates open, has been hitting, running and otherwise working out at the stadium to prepare for his return, but usually before his teammates arrive.

His appearance in the clubhouse caught even Torre off guard.

Asked if it surprised him, Torre said, "I can't speak for everybody else, but it did me. We had heard that he would possibly show up last week, and he has been showing up" at Dodger Stadium to practice.

But, Torre added, "not when we're here."

Dodgers shortstop Rafael Furcal, whose locker is next to Ramirez's, said "it was pretty good to have him be around us, saying hello to all his teammates."

Asked how fans would react upon his return, Ramirez said, "I'm happy that they support me, that they love me here. They know I let them down but I come back, I make it up and we move on. That's all I can do.

"It's going to be fun, it's going to be crazy," Ramirez said as he sat in a chair in front of his locker. "I love it, I'm looking forward to it. I'll be ready to go."

He said he had not yet talked to Torre about a stint in the minor leagues to ready himself for his return, but that "I'll probably need it, go out and play for a week or whatever."

Torre said that likely would be decided after the club returns from a three-game series against the Rangers in Texas that ends Sunday.

"When they go on the road, I'll stay here working out," Ramirez said.

Ramirez tested positive for significantly elevated levels of testosterone, and a subsequent investigation uncovered a prescription for another banned substance, HCG.

Ramirez accepted the suspension based on the indisputable evidence of the prescription.

He has not spoken publicly about the matter beyond a statement that noted the suspension was for "a medication, not a steroid" for a "personal health issue." Anti-doping experts say HCG is often taken to raise testosterone levels after a cycle of steroids.

Ramirez, with 533 career home runs, also was asked if he thought the suspension would taint his achievements in baseball.

"I don't think so," he replied. "I'll be fine, I'll be fine, I just want to come and play and move on."

Referring to his exile, Ramirez said "it's not fun because you want to play, you want to win you want to help your team, but it is what it is."

"They've been playing great," he said of Dodgers, who have the best record in baseball and lead the National League West by 8 1/2 games.

He also said Juan Pierre, who has hit exceptionally well since taking over for Ramirez in left field, "is playing great. You've got to respect that."

The Dodgers then beat San Diego (27-31) with two home runs by Andre Ethier and solo homers by Matt Kemp and Orlando Hudson in front of 35,313.

Dodgers starter Chad Billingsley (8-3) gave up three earned runs and eight hits in 5 2/3 innings to get the win.

And closer Jonathan Broxton gave up one run to the Padres in the ninth inning, the first run he's allowed at Dodger Stadium this season.

But the Dodgers improved to 40-20, matching the team's best mark to open the season since 1983.

쓸모없는 얘기는 빼고 얘기하겠습니다.

매니는 침묵을 깨고 플로리다에서 팀메이트들과의 짧은 만남이후 서프라이즈 미팅을 잠깐 가졌고 그자리에서 몇몇 동료는 그와 포홍을 하면서 이전 3번타자를 뜨겁게 맞이했습니다.
그는 약물과 관한 정확한 답변을 피했지만, 빨리 라인업에 돌아와서 팬들과 팀에게 도움이 되고 싶다고 말했다.
저는 결코 팀에게 해악을 끼치고 싶지 않아요. 프랭크(다저스 구단주), 팀메이트와 조에게 미안할 뿐입니다.

그는 로니에게 타격에 관한 약간의 조언도 곁들였다.
물론 사람들을 죽인것도 누구를 강간한것도 아니라고 말하긴 했지만, 앞뒤말을 다 싹둑 잘라내버리고 자극적인 내용만 실은 기자의 자질이 의심스럽습니다.
다저스는 내일 파즈와의 시리즈 두 번째 경기를 가진 후 알링턴으로 향하겠지만, 매니는 여전히 다저스타디움에 남아 훈련을 할 것이라고 밝혔다.
그리고 매니는 약물에 대한 명백한 증거에 대해 이미 수용했다고 제차 밝혔습니다.
여기에는 나와있지 않지만, 오렌지카운티에는 다른 글이 있었으며 서프라이즈한 미팅에 대해 퍼칼은 매니에게 농담조로 "헤이! 매니 오늘 경기뛰는거야?"라는 농담도 했습니다.

기자가 매니를 싫어하는지는 잘 모르겠습니다. 하지만, 자기 편한대로 원문을 짤라서 해석하니 일반인들은 기자말을 들었겠죠. 진짜 왜 이러는지 기자에게 묻고 싶네요.
싫은건 싫은거지만, 자신의 본분에 맞는 행동을 보여야할텐데...
