For example, an eighteen year old ruptured an elbow ligament while pitching for his high school baseball team, at the time he was playing for three different baseball teams in three different seasons. Playing a year round sport can also lead to kids to dropping the sport. All of these reasons lead to how intense youth sports have become. The rewards and exposure from success in youth sports have increased significantly. Most of this is because of the technology that youths and adults are exposed to including ESPN, YouTube, and an increase in television exposure for youth games.

When you think of baseball, you think of America’s past time and all of the great ones who have played the game. Not anymore you don’t. Baseball is now being put under the microscope and scrutinized by sports fans all around. People just don’t look at the game the same as they did before. One of the biggest scandals involving steroids was the Mitchell Report.
Most of Derek’s new knowledge came at the plate where he learned techniques from other players, where he was schooled on the art of hitting to all fields. Different pitches in different locations required different swings and the quicker he reacts than the faster he would reach the major leagues with all-stars players. Although Derek Jeter took hitting instructions he was having problems because he would struggle .200 all summer long in his first season and he also let his hitting effect his fielding. (Swiryn) He booted 21 balls in 58 games at stops with the New York’s rookie level team in Tampa and even with the Greensboro Hornets. His minor league manager Gary Denbo assured him this was fundamental stuff and it was easy to fix through repetition.
Usually setting up a game in order for someone to earn money a cheating way. In baseball there have been a lot of major controversies of the use of steroids and other performance enhancing, muscle building drugs. It’s been all over the news for years now. It seems like every year there is a new baseball player that everybody thought was the greatest but then later
Troy Kesterson Professor Carmichael English 104 29 November 2011 Steroids in Baseball Athletes whether young or old, amateur or professional, are always looking for an advantage over their opponents. The desire for an “edge” and the satisfaction of winning exists in all levels of play. Successful athletes practice and work hard but others resort to drugs to give them that edge. Ever since the inception of the Major League Baseball in 1876, players have looked to gain that competitive edge. Early pitchers adopted the spitball, which was the chemical altering of a baseball with saliva, Vaseline, or mud to make the baseball behave in ways atypical of a delivered pitch.
I would also ask him if he didn’t have ALS where he think he’d be. It would be hard to ask questions to someone like him, in my opinion because of his situation. You wouldn’t want to ask the wrong thing and make someone like him mad or something like that. In conclusion, Lou Gehrig was an all time baseball player, he had the looks, he had over 400 home runs but also he had a disease which was later named after him. People now still suffer from this disease and Gehrig still remains a legend.

Manny Ramirez, who will go down as one of baseball’s most feared hitters, was suspended for 50 games at the beginning of the 2009 season for using steroids. Home-run records and batting averages are steadily rising as steroids use is becoming more and more prevalent in Major League Baseball. Much of the professional baseball audience includes young high school and college athletes. What do you think they assume about steroids? High school and college athletes are now starting to use steroids, after seeing how much success professional athletes have, without realizing the risks.
Did you know athletes at the collegiate level are required to pull their pants down in front of the nurse to prove the urine sample is their own! Not only is that morally wrong, but could stir up legal drama and end in a lawsuit and the end of their athletic career. Likewise, money always seems to be an issue in our time, but $15 million dollars is being spent on these drug tests when most are lied about to be thrown away. Marijuana and tobacco is the most positive drug in teenage drug tests. Nurse Jennifer Hanson was questioned about this and replied “yes, many are positive for these drugs and when a majority of them are told their results the automatic answer is ‘I was in the car with someone smoking’ and the head nurse tells them they’re fine to go.” If the head nurses doing these tests let these lying kids go, is there a point?
