Lowe Riding High
Pitcher Derek Lowe revealed in a divorce deposition that he has taken medication to treat adult attention deficit disorder for three years, although he said he had never seen a Dodger physician for the problem. The medication Lowe is taking, Adderall, is banned by Major League Baseball because it is an amphetamine. However, he has received a "therapeutic exemption" and is allowed to take it, according to an official in the commissioner's office.
