Jason Giambi, Sammy Sosa and Curt Schilling will reportedly receive subpoenas to testify on March 17 before the House Government Reform Committee regarding steroids. The Baltimore Sun reported that subpoenas will start going out Wednesday, and Rafael Palmeiro, Frank Thomas, Jose Canseco and Mark McGwire will also be called to appear at the hearing.
Tom Davis (R-VA), chairman of the Committee, and Henry Waxman (D-CA), ranking minority member, announced on Tuesday they received notice several medical experts and family members who have been affected by the use of steroids will testify at the hearing.
