It puts a damper on his past accomplishments.

But I also agree with what many people have said, that corking really doesn't add any power. It takes less than one ounce, most times only half an ounce off. Plus it doesn't add much if any power to the swing, it's basically a mental thing. It may help an infield out turn into a single, but it won't blast a home out of a sac fly, especially turn a sac fly into a 550 homer. Maybe he'd have had 470 homers if he did in fact use corked bats before, maybe he'd still have 505, I just believe its not much of a factor. But still it is illegal in the sport of baseball.

But no one took away from Ryans 5,000+ K's or HOF credentials when he was caught scuffing balls.
