ESPN Finds out what Baseball was Hiding from the fans Tuesday 11/8/05
BRISTOL, Connecticut (Ticker) - Former All-Star first baseman Wally Joyner took steroids he received from former teammate Ken Caminiti, according to a detailed report about the spread of the drug throughout baseball by ESPN The Magazine.
The report uncovers numerous damaging facts including that Joyner admitted he asked Caminiti to help him get steroids during the 1998 season while they were with the San Diego Padres.
Caminiti, who admitted to using steroids himself in 2002, did honor the request and Joyner ingested pills for some time before throwing them away after regretting what he did.
Caminiti, who struggled with substance abuse for most of his adult life, died of a drug overdose in 2004.
Also revealed was that Major League Baseball attempted to outlaw steroid use in 1991 and again in 1997. These dates clash with previous information provided by MLB, acknowledging that the sport knew that steroids were a serious problem well before it has recently stated in Congressional hearings.
