Hall of Shame: Steroids in Major League Baseball
In a “tell-all” interview with MLB Network’s Bob Costas, McGwire revealed little to no information about his past use of PEDs, although he did admit to using them. McGwire told Costas: “I wish I had never touched steroids. It was foolish and it was a mistake. I truly apologize. Looking back, I wish I had never played during the steroid era.” McGwire did, however, provide a timeline for his steroid use. According to McGwire, he began using PEDs during the 1989/1990 offseason as well as off and on throughout the 1990s, including during the 1998 season.
