Even if it was just a single incident how are we to know for sure it wasn't just the only time he got caught?

Uhh, bonds didn't cork his bat. This is a steroid issue.

i think he's saying guys who got caught with corked bats dont count, so neither should bonds.

Exactly.

The burden is on MLB management to establish a policy to stop the use of steroids. I'm not an expert on the whole situation, but it seems to me like they've known about the problem for quite some time.
