actually, it has more to do with the fact that the roids will help a person's body recover from a bout of exercise (playing baseball daily in this case or being able to lift weights more often to increase the muscle in a shorter time frame) a lot quicker and allow them to play at a higher level on a regular basis. This makes a lot of sense if you think about the fact that hitting a baseball requires hand-eye coordination. Taking steroids will not improve your hand-eye coordination. This also makes sense when you think about a pitcher taking steroids. Pitchers aren't throwing 200 MPH or anything, it just helps them recover quicker.Originally Posted by HollywoodLeo
