I was thinking the same thing. How did he even test positive for it?

 

They added a blood test last summer apparently...

HGH can be detected only through blood testing, and the test must be conducted very shortly after the injection.

#mlb Jacobs' positive test was indeed through a blood test, which was implented last year in the minors.

The thing with HGH and blood testing is they have to test you repeatedly, and compare your results with past ones, to see increases in certain areas

 

The test doesn't simply say "HGH: FOUND", but they will see fluctuations in certain aspects of your blood tests
