    He was the most terrifying hitter in the league. Something about his batting stance always made him seem like he was about to hit the ball 600 feet.

      As an old man, Big Cat hit the longest home run to left field in the memory of Giant fans at AT&T.
      He was a naturally explosive hitter who may or may not have juiced. But what fun to watch this guy.

    Andres Galarraga's 399 home runs are worth much more than the home runs of many hall-of-fame baseball players, as Andrés hit his 399 home runs without the help of steroids.

      @@Onlyinthe619 I think not. He looks strong but not in an artificial way, and his athleticism was impeccable. His timing had a lot to do with his power, too. I don't believe he was juicing. Neifi Perez was juicing, there's the irony.
