When talking about Barry Bonds is talking about home runs, but as not to do if he is the one who keeps the record for most home runs in a season and in the history of baseball, one would also speak of stolen bases but in the same way we talk about steroids.
In 2001 I leave behind the record of former St. Louis Cardinals player Mark McGwire who was a leader for only three years with 70 home runs, being overtaken by Bonds' 73 home run, in 2007 he consolidated himself as the maximum home run hitter. of the history of the MLB with 762, but that same year was accused by the use of drugs for high performance, this completely opaque his entire career.
In 2013 he was eligible for the first time in the Hall of Fame vote, receiving only 36.6% of votes, although these last elections his votes have been increasing, it is possible that he is elected to enter Cooperstown.
In my thinking if Bond enters HOF, the MLB would be justifying the use of drugs for sports performance, these are acts that should be applied to the full extent of the law, otherwise it would unleash a media war of the press and fans asking that players like Alex Rodriguez, Mark McGwire, Sammy Sosa and others should also have a place in the Hall of Fame. This would be a lack of respect to the players who saw their records achieved with effort and work are dethroned by people who used drugs to overcome them.
