He talks like he's clean. But...is he?Davis himself considers Maris the record holder, telling ESPN's "Mike & Mike" in early July that "the reason being, he was the last guy to do it clean. There's a lot of things that have been said about the guys who have come after him and have achieved the record, but I think as far as the fans are concerned they still view Maris as being the all-time home run record [holder] and I think you have to. There's no doubt that Barry [Bonds] and Mark [McGwire] and any of those guys had ridiculous seasons and had some great years, but I think when you get to the root of the record, I still think it's Roger Maris.'"
37 dingers by the All Star break. Record pace. Not bad. Is he doing it without roids, HGH or secret trips to a dark office run by some supplement-injecting quack with an MD?

Aren't they tested now?
Juice saved baseball. I dont believe MLB really wants to stop it.
Oh. So they are ten games over the half-way point. That's important. ThanksI have my suspicions, and I'm an Orioles fan, so I hope he's not juicing. These days I'm always suspicious when a player puts up those kind of numbers.
That said, his record tying "before the all star break" is a little misleading. He hit 37 HRs in 96 games. Reggie Jackson hit 37 HRs in 81 games I believe it was, Bonds hit 39 in 80 or 81 games. So, an extra half a month worth of games for Davis to accomplish the same feat that others did in less games. I have no idea why they still refer to the all star game as the unofficial half way point.

15 games past the half way point.
