A lot of media have been reporting Pete Rose Jr. was distributing a steroid. But reading further into it, GBL is actually used more commonly as a date rape drug. According to a medical expert, Gamma Butyrolactone is a sedative hypnotic.
In small doses it leads to drowsiness; larger doses it leads to unconsciousness or coma. The DEA says it's invisible when dissolved, odorless and quickly, metabolized in the body. All features of a quality date rape drug. So why was he giving it to teammates?
John Rocker was one of Rose's teammates on the Long Island Ducks this year, but these charges stem from his time with the Chattanooga Lookouts, a Reds affiliate, in 2002.
