"I want to apologize to the New York Yankees and the fans for an error in judgment and for putting myself in a difficult situation," said Chamberlain in a statement released by his agent, Randy Hendricks. "I intend to properly resolve this situation, and do not intend to be in such a situation again. My goal is to focus on pitching for the Yankees in the 2009 season."
Chamberlain was arrested early Saturday just outside his hometown of Lincoln, Nebraska. According to the Lincoln Journal Star, Chamberlain was pulled over for speeding by the Nebraska State Patrol just after 1 a.m. The officer detected an odor of alcohol coming from the car and saw an open container of alcohol in the vehicle.
Chamberlain, 23, just completed his second season in the majors with the Yankees, compiling a 4-3 record with a 2.60 earned run average in 42 games, including 12 starts. The righty has been used as both a set-up man and a starter, and team chairman Hank Steinbrenner said recently that the team would probably use him as a starter in 2009.
