Eddie Murray declines to comment on investigation

Hall-of-Famer Eddie Murray declined all comment when asked Saturday about being investigated by the federal government as part of an insider trading operation that involved Murray’s former Orioles teammate Doug DeCinces.

Murray has not been charged in the investigation, but DeCinces was fined $2.5 million by the Securities and Exchange Commission last August. Murray has been directed by his attorneys not to comment on the investigation and continued that stand Saturday.

“You know I can’t say nothing, right?” Murray said while at Camden Yards for the Earl Weaver statue ceremony.

Murray, who played 12-plus seasons with the Orioles and was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 2003, will have his own statue at Camden Yards dedicated on Aug. 11.
