"There's a long history of amphetamines — or speed and more commonly called greenies in the baseball world — fueling generations of baseball players. Many turned to the stimulants for a way to get pepped up when their bodies couldn't do so on their own during a long season. The pills, widely used even until recently, helped with energy for day games following night games and other times when players were short on sleep, such as after a long cross-country flight."
All you McGwire haters should be the first ones saying that many current HOF'ers should be kicked out and banned. With the sex, drugs, and rock n roll era of the 1960's and 1970's, I'm sure many people's childhood idols were "cheating" and shouldn't be in the Hall, right?

Maybe, but seems irrelevant here since Bonds almost never plays in a day game after a night game, except perhaps to pinch-hit.
