So did his hat size actually change or is this just a cool sounding myth. Some Peds will 100% bloat your face up as many make you retain water. So your head will look bigger when it really isn't.

He went from an 8 to a size 10. I am surprised you didn't know that. HGH makes your head grow.

LOL, 8 to 10. I was actually surprised at how small many MLB players heads are. I noticed it when looking at game worn hats. I wear a tight 7 5/8 when I have no hair so it is hard to find a gamer that I can wear.

HGH is one of the few things I never took.

Yeah, nobody was selling it in the dorms back then.

No idea about what his hat size did but we all saw his body and head grow to a pretty absurd degree. It was part of the steroid era zeitgeist. SNL did skits about it. It wasn’t debatable or even a secret that he was juicing.
