The players of the "steroid era" all played under the same conditions, pitchers took them as well as hitters and we don't hear any outcry about pitchers taking steroids. Ruth never had to face relif specialtists and other pitcher beefed up steroids throwing 100mph fastballs in late innings of games.
What Bonds has done is far beyond what anyone else has done and it doesn't really matter if he took them or not. He is putting up numbers that no one is even getting close to. And if you look at the history of steroid use, those that ahve admitted to using them have had precipitous drop offs in their career in their mid 30s.
