June 24, 1997: Mark McGwire jacked a 538-foot homer off Randy Johnson, but the Big Unit had mostly terrific stuff in a 4-1 loss to the A's. The Mariners' lefty struck out 19 — one short of Roger Clemens’ major league record at the time for a nine-inning game.

Johnson became the fifth big-league pitcher to fan 19 in a game, joining Nolan Ryan, Tom Seaver, Steve Carlton and David Cone. Johnson struck out 19 later that season. Besides Clemens, who has done it twice, two other pitchers have struck out 20: Kerry Wood and Max Scherzer.

The thing that people forget about with McGwire is how he looked beforehand. He was a scrawny nerdy looking fella. Same with Bonds.

Scrawny isn't what comes to mind. Not as big, but not scrawny............

Whew sent me down a MLB players who used steroids and HGH rabbit hole. Even tho I’ve been down it a million times, for some reason I never tire of going back and looking at physical appearances and wondering how no one said anything before. Lol Some of these dudes were absolutely yoked
