Braun in October 2011 were leaked to ESPN's Outside the Lines. ESPN reported that Braun had tested positive for an elevated level of testosterone caused by a performance-enhancing drug and faced a 50-game suspension. The Daily News quoted a source who said that the test results were "insanely high, the highest ever for anyone who has ever taken a test, twice the level of the highest test ever taken". Braun appealed the positive drug test in January 2012. He contended that the test collector, Dino Laurenzi Jr., mishandled his urine sample. Under MLB's drug-testing program, samples should be sent to the laboratory on the same day they are collected "absent unusual circumstance". Braun's sample was collected and sealed on a Saturday. Laurenzi stated that no FedEx delivery center was open; therefore, he followed protocol, stored the samples in a Rubbermaid container, and dropped them off at an open FedEx center on Monday. Braun pointed out there were at least five FedEx locations within five miles that were open until 9 p.m. and there also was a 24-hour location. MLB argued that there was no evidence of tampering of the sample, and the United States Anti-Doping Agency said the testosterone levels in the samples would not grow in a refrigerator over a weekend. A second test conducted by an independent laboratory showed normal testosterone levels. On February 22, 2012, a three-member panel overturned the test results by a vote of two to one. It was the first time that an MLB player had successfully challenged a drug test result. The arbitration panel, consisting of MLB representative Rob Manfred, players' union lawyer Michael Weiner, and arbitrator Shyam Das, determined that Braun had raised valid questions about the manner in which Laurenzi had handled his sample. The New York Times wrote that Braun "won on a technicality". Braun expressed relief at the panel's decision, saying, "'We were able to get through this because I am innocent and the truth is on our side'". Braun added, "'There were a lot of things that we learned about the collector, about the collection process, about the way that the entire thing worked, that made us very concerned and very suspicious about what could have actually happened'".
