Reality is PED's, steroids included, have been used by various athletes in all major sports by the early 60s at the latest. Look at the Russians in the 50s but Olympic athletes weren't even tested for steroids until the mid 70s. That's a long time for players to experiment with substances that weren't banned yet.

Johnson and Evans were 30 and 26.
Aaron also hit 34 the year before and 47 the year before that so it wasn't so out of line.
