for yankeetogo regarding your comment, what about the drunk that used to pitch for the yanks "the babe" this guy prolly played more games under the influence of alcohol and god knows what else but he is an "icon". I played ball for about 15 years and a few times i played a lil hung over and sometimes still drunk and my stats (pitching) were better in those games. I am not saying that alcohol makes you better at baseball, but it did something, i was WAY more relaxed on the mound and it seemed to help me, so why not bash the babe?? what about David Wells pitching a perfect game while hung over?? did they test him for anything??what about Doc Gooden and Darrlystrawberry?? Is MLB gonna look into wheather or not they used cocain while playing?? i doubt it. its the past, leave it there. Quit hating on one of the greatest HITTERS of all time Mr. Barry Bonds :)
