The most impressive thing for me with Frank was his strike zone. I don't remember a whole lot of pitchers making him look bad. He was a very well-disciplined hitter.

i just heard frank thomas say "it means a lot to me because i did it the right way". An obvious and direct reference at other steriod users and their accomplishments. While people no doubt lie and he had plenty of time to plan his speech, it sounded sincere and real. I believe he has been clean, if for no other reason than that he didn't need them. He was always strong and hit right away. congrats to him, i am glad he hung around to get it.
