Biographical Information
Outfielder Marvin Benard spent his entire major league career with the San Francisco Giants.
In April 2010, Benard told the San Francisco Chronicle that he took steroids during the 2002 season, when the Giants reached the World Series but during which he made only 131 plate appearances. His name had already been mentioned in the Mitchell Report in 2007. "To be honest, it was an embarrassing moment that you can't take back," he told the newspaper. "When you're playing, you do some dumb things, thinking 'This is going to help me'. You realize later they were stupid."
