Good for him. I’d like to see Arod redeem himself before he retires. Enough of the hypocrites and their delicious tears. These guys saved baseball and since the homers have gone down so has attendance. If you love the pure game so much why are the seats empty? Ruth’s era played against only whites. Willie Mays era took meth. Half of baseball’s early HOFers didnt even play night games. Give it a rest. Good job Arod, Bonds, Sosa, McGwire and thank you for keeping baseball relevant. Congrats.

That is one of the more disappointing comments I’ve read on FR. If the only way to keep a sport relevant is by cheating, then it’s time for that sport to fold up shop and call it game over.

I agree. I’m glad that we’re back to real baseball and not bash ball, but the sanctimony gets on my nerves.

Not a fan of Arod (mainly because I am a Red Sox fan), but I am impressed that he is doing as well as he is at 39 and after a year off. Six homeruns already this season, putting him in the top ten for the season.
