The report that you are going to read today is about steroids in the history of baseball. This drug does help the athletes but it can also injure them in their life. This situation has been around for years,and for years to come. Many athletes ruin their sports career trying to get all strong and muscular for all the ladies to want them I'm guessing. This situation has been trying to be stopped for generations, and people will try and stop it for generations to come. It's unbelievable how many athletes are willing to risk their career and their life just to improve their game in sports.
The first athlete that I am going to make an example of is the home run king Barry Bonds. He has been around the the game of baseball for many years now. He is a baseball player right now and his father was a baseball player back in his time. He just recently broke the all time home run record that was held for so long by Hank Aaron one of the first black baseball players to break a record in his career! After he had broken the record he was accused of using enhancing steroids. This was not the first time he was accused of enhancing steroids he was accused a while back in his career but no one really paid attention to that after a while because he was never proven innocent or guilty. Until this day Barry Bonds' ticket to the Hall of Fame is in danger!
The second player that I will use as an example is Mark McGuire. In case you don't know who that is he was a player for St.Louis Cardinals, as a matter of fact he was their leading home run hitter! He is in the top ten when it comes to home runs. He was also accused of using enhancing pills for improvement in his baseball game! People say that he should be stripped from all of his career titles. He does have a lot of accomplishments in his career but thanks to him using the enhancing pills all those are at risk of being taken away.
Barry Bonds and Mark McGuire are not the only baseball players to take these pills. Sammy Sosa was also accused of being a steroid abuser. He also is in the top ten of the all time home run hitters in the M.L.B. (Major League Baseball). Sammy Sosa is the all-time home run hitter for the Chicago Cubs,but now plays for the Baltimore Orioles. He did retire for a season because he was accused of steroids enhancing. People also say that he should be stripped of all his home run that he has hit through out his career.
Baseball is not the only sport that has players enhancing steroids into themselves, but so far it is the sport that has had the most in their league. So many players have been kicked out of their career because of this situation. Some people have no clue why people bother to use these dangerous drugs. But they do it anyway no matter what they are told for some reason they just won't listen!
