Scott Elkins19th Century players (along with the rest of America) used Cocaine to increase their productivity on the field in Baseball. However, it was legal at that time, and thought to be rather healthy for people. However, I am sure that alcohol never helped Babe Ruth (just look at his physique). Also, I would have loved to have seen the numbers put up by Mickey Mantle, had he not used alcohol so frequently - maybe Barry and the Juice would be chasing Mantle's HR record!?!?
