Bash Brothers
The Bash Brothers are a duo of former baseball players consisting of Jose Canseco and Mark McGwire. Both prolific home run hitters, the two were teammates in Major League Baseball (MLB) for seven seasons with the Oakland Athletics, helping the team win a World Series title in 1989. The two began celebrating homers by bashing each other's forearms, which spawned a marketing campaign that was a takeoff on The Blues Brothers. After retiring from playing, Canseco and McGwire both admitted to using anabolic steroids during their careers.
==Background==
Canseco was drafted by the Oakland A's in the 15th round of the 1982 MLB Draft. He did not become a legitimate power hitter until he began weightlifting in late 1984 and gained of muscle. In 1985 he jumped from AA to AAA to the major leagues, and batted .300 at each level. In 29 games with Oakland that season, he batted .302 with five home runs (HR) and 13 runs batted in (RBI), and hit a combined 41 HR with 140 RBI at all levels that year.
McGwire played college baseball for the USC Trojans, and set a school record with 32 HR in his junior year.〔 He played for the United States national team in the 1984 Summer Olympics before being selected by the A's in the first round of the 1984 draft. In two-plus years in the minor leagues, McGwire hit 48 HR.〔 He debuted with the A's as a third baseman in August 1986.〔
