i couldn't help notice how the ball were being hit with much less authority then in the previous 10 hr contests.not a single hr traveled over 500 feet.back in 96 in phila where i live big mac was launching homers into the 700 section of veterans stadium a huge muti purpose stadium.in 2002 in the brewers park sosa was hitting balls into the rafters over train and was pratically playing pinball there with all the beams and shafts and who can also forget mac at fenway he made the green monster look like a regular 8 foot wall.the use of steroids are down but i miss all the feats that came with them.
