Major League Baseball completed its investigation into the allegations made against Washington’s Ryan Zimmerman and Philadelphia’s Ryan Howard by an Al-Jazeera documentary, and has found neither player guilty of any wrongdoing.

The league said in a statement released Friday that both players fully cooperated with the investigation, and the league found no evidence that they had violated the league’s drug policy.
