Alex Rodriguez of New York Yankees hits 600th home run - ESPN New York (http://sports.espn.go.com/new-york/mlb/news/story?id=5437158)
You would think this would be a bigger deal then it actually is... No one care because he used HGH for three years and you cant blame them....
Alex was still a great player before he used HGH but he ruin this record by doing so....
600 Club
Barry Bonds 762 HGH
Henry Aaron 755
Babe Ruth 714
Willie Mays 660
Ken Griffey Jr. 630
Sammy Sosa 609 HGH
Alex Rodriguez 600 HGH
Rodriguez is among only three players, along with Reggie Jackson and Darrell Evans, to hit 100 home runs for three different teams.
For one of the most scrutinized players in baseball, there was little fanfare in the run-up to No. 600 -- perhaps it's Steroid Era fatigue or the fact that Rodriguez became the fourth player to reach the mark in the last 10 years after none in 31 years.
The pursuit of the home run record gets lucrative now. As part of his $275 million, 10-year deal signed after opting out of his contract during the 2007 World Series, Rodriguez can earn up to $30 million more for six milestone homers.
If Rodriguez ties Mays, he will receive a $6 million bonus. He'd get $6 million more each time for matching Ruth, Aaron and Bonds and breaking the record.
