Default Bonds exposed: Shadows details superstar slugger's steroid use

Posted By: jay behrens

I used to live in SF and have attended many games at both The Stick and the new park. People claim the park was built for Bonds, but it's obviously not that easy to hit it over the wall in right. I've been down on the field at home plate. It's like Fenway, the wall seems so close that it seemed I could poke it over the wall with ease.

David, I doubt you'll ever see the day that baseball, or any other sport in the US goes the route of the Olympics. They trying to uphold an ideal of pure athleticism. American sports only worships the all-mighty dollar. And if that means atheletes pumping themselves full of drugs, etc in order to draw fans and increase revenues, then they will continue to let athletes do pretty much anything they want.
