Hernandez Cocaine Testimony Shapes Trial At Pittsburgh
Keith Hernandez testified he began using cocaine in 1980 during a period he called the romance years of baseball. He said he bought drugs from unnamed players, saw a transfer in a hotel room, and noted a decline by 1981 with lingering use in 1982. Prosecution tied the drug scene to Curtis Strong, the former Phillies cook on trial for cocaine distribution, as witnesses including Lonnie Smith and others testified about supplies and usage involving Cardinals, Pirates, and Dodgers personnel.
