Why was Ryan Braun's failed drugs test not re-done?

Ryan Braun failed a drug test earlier and on appeal it and his 50 game bans was overturned on a technicality. Should not the test have been re-done to remove any lingering doubts?

    It was re-done and Braun passed the second time

    "Since being informed of the results, Braun has been disputing his case. A source close to Braun said that when he was told about the positive test, he immediately requested to be tested again. That second test, using a different sample that was tested by Braun's camp, the source said, was not positive. "

    What participant had the MVP revoked? It absolutely grow to be not for finding out helpful for PED's because the finding out began decrease than 10 years in the past. No they gained't revoke his MVP. Kemp of route had extra advantageous numbers even if the writers do not always provide the award to the participant with the perfect numbers.

    Braun was actually retested 'before' anyone even knew he'd failed the first one.

    He will be retested. Everyone is routinely tested.

    I think he is going to be tested more than any other player now.

    Drugs don't show up on the tests forever, after a certain amount of time (Different for everybody, and different amount of times for each drug) they will no longer be in your system so to do a retest for a drug that does not stay in your system long term could produce a false negative.
