And, do it without steroids.<br>As for the home-run rate not being easily explained---hogwash. Players of yesteryear never touched a weight. Besides Roger Maris (61 in 1961) and Babe Ruth (60 in  27), there was Jimmie Foxx (58 in  21), Hank Greenberg (58 in  38), Hack Wilson (56 in  30), Ralph Kiner (54 in  49), Mickey Mantle (54 in  61), Willie Mays (52 in  65) George Foster (52 in  77) and Johnny Mize (51 in  47). What would have happened if they had been on a solid strength and conditioning program? Also, most of these old-timers played eight fewer games than are played now. <br>Each year more and more players come into baseball with more and more strength and conditioning experience. Many high school players are stronger right now than many major league players have ever been and have reached these strength levels without steroids. Every baseball organization has a strength and conditioning coach. Ten years ago most did not. With or without steroids, there will be more and more home runs hit in the future. <br>How widespread is the problem?<br><br>Atlanta pitcher and NL player representative Tom Glavine said,  Most players admit something has to be done. Steroid use might not be as widespread as Canseco claimed.  I would bet virtually everything I have that it s not, but players said they know there are some using performance enhancing drugs. <br>The Astros Lance Berkman, who is a home-run leader this year and leads his league in RBI, said,  People say 50% of the players are on steroids. I think that s ridiculous, but obviously there are some people who take steroids and play major league baseball. People try to cheat all the time. <br>Chicago White Sox Royce Clayton agrees with testing for steroids.  It sends a message that steroids are a substance you don t want to mess around with and that there is no place for them in the game. We are role models, and that s the most important thing a player has to understand. As soon as we test and the game is clean, the better it will be for everybody. <br> I would like to see testing, said Braves outfielder Gary Sheffield.  I mean you see how much guys are using it. Unless you ve got ser his senior year."<br>Weighing 260, Ellis benches 340, squats 450, power cleans 250, runs a 5.2 forty, and last year was responsible for 102 tackles. "Emmitt uses his hands probably as good as anybody I've ever seen. He also has good upper body strength on the field. He works hard in the weightroom, but he's definitely got a lot of natural ability."<br>Also of note in the weightroom is defensive tackp; We talked about it all week individaully and as a team.&nbsp; We always talk about dealing with adversity to the team and now they knew it was time to stand up and be counted.&nbsp; It certainly seemed to work as we went on to win our last 6 conference games and g
