The Bash Brothers, Mark McGwire and Jose Canseco, took the baseball world by storm with their home run hitting prowess at the close of the 1980s.
They ushered in an era of increased power through science, the steroid age of baseball. A fun, but ultimately disappointing time to be a baseball fan.
Baseball has had a wonderful history of high-profile power-hitting teammates, from Ruth and Gehrig, to Mantle and Maris, and Mays and McCovey. McGwire and Canseco might be the last high-profile pair, two players on the same team, in their prime, with the ability to lead the league in long balls each season.
Although no one pair stands out, this slideshow looks at the leaders from the last two decades. Enjoy!
