Manny Ramirez was hit with a 100 game suspension by MLB in April, 2011 for violating the League's drug policy when he tested positive for a performance enhancing substance during spring training. Since this was his second violation (his first was in 2009 and he was given a 50 game suspension) the penalty was 100 games.

Rather than serve the suspension, he immediately announced his retirement from the game. Doing this kept MLB from giving details about the incident, instead, MLB released a statement saying there was an issue with Ramirez' drug test and he had chosen to retire.
