Chris Perez pleaded no contest to drug abuse on Tuesday and was found guilty of receiving a small package of marijuana back in June. Cleveland's 28-year-old closer was sentenced to pay a $250 fine and serve one year of probation. A six-ounce bag of pot sent from Los Angeles and addressed to Brody Baum, Perez' dog, was intercepted by police in June. Perez' wife Melanie also appeared in court on Tuesday and entered a plea to minor drug possession. Mr. Perez said that the drugs and paraphernalia found in his basement kitchen belong to him.
