Bonds v. Mitchell Report Pitchers

As a joke, ESPN.com put up Barry Bonds’s numbers against pitchers who appeared on the Mitchell report.  But this brings up an important point.  Bonds presumably faced pitchers who were as allegedly juiced as he was (allegedly).  Here are his alleged combined numbers against members the Mitchell report pitching staff that he faced:

22 HR, 52 RBI, 229 AB, 71 H, .310 Avg

Those are some fine numbers.  This is why Bonds’s home run record should stand.  Because it wasn’t just Barry.  It was everyone.

Here is the breakdown as reported by ESPN.com:
