home runs, statistics and steroids

Posted By: David Smith

As I have said before, Barry always had the ability to hit the baseball but with steroids, those warning track fly balls turn into Home Runs. Then the opposing managers and pitchers get scared and Intentionally Walk him which helps to increase his Batting Average, On-Base Percentage, OPS and MVP Awards.

This increases his pay and fan attendance but cheapens baseball and the statistics, at least in my opinion.
