This is false. It wasn't individual players on their own in baseball. Owners and teams were tacitly encouraging players to use steroids - which is why they didn't test, or pass any rules against PED use. Even if a player was doping in the 90s, he wasn't breaking any rules.
Sure, there was quiet encouragement and hush hush acceptance, but it's not like cycling where the guy deciding if you were going to make the team or not was tossing you a bag of EPO and testosterone viles and syringes

He was at the time "the best of the dopers". Everyone doped in that era. The evidence against him is a mountain of circumstantial but it is a mountain. As a cycling fan I want the sport as clean as it can be, and if this helps, so be it.
