Last night Barry Bonds broke the all-time home-run record when he hit career homer # 756.
It didn’t take long for Victor Conte, the man at the center of the BALCO scandal to come forward and steal some of the spotlight from Bonds. Conte said that he’s convinced he played a small, but important, role in Barry Bonds’ coronation as Major League Baseball’s home run king, saying he designed a complex nutritional regimen from 2000 to 2003 in conjunction with an intense weightlifting program that enabled Bonds to significantly increase his power.
Conte who served prison time for selling designer steroids from his Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative, said the supplements he sold Bonds were all legal. “I never gave him steroids,” Conte said. “I never had those discussions with Barry because there was no need to.”
He said Bonds’ personal trainer Greg Anderson also deserves some credit for helping Bonds break Hank Aaron’s home-run record.
Anderson has been in a federal minimum security prison since November for refusing to testify in the federal government’s perjury probe of the new home-run king. There is speculation that Bonds has plans to “Take Care” of Anderson once he’s released.
