Now that Barry Bonds has passed Babe Ruth in career homeruns, it's crucial that the legitimacy of that feat be verified. So far it's been tainted by steroid accusations, and that taints the sport. Major League Baseball has mostly ducked the steroid issue, but an investigation headed by former Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell may offer some real answers.
Mitchell was hired by baseball commissioner Bud Selig to get to the bottom of the steroid questiion in baseball. Mitchell has a team of investigators and lawyers looking into every steroid allegation, and says the probe will go wherever the evidence takes it. Let's hope so. The issue has been a big black eye for baseball, but finally it appears that the commssioner and owners want to have answers about performance-enhancing drugs.
Mitchell has credibility and his investigation should provide some substantive answers about steroid use in baseball.
