I think when you really dig down deep into it, it's a pretty clear answer: Health and PR
Shooting yourself up in the rear end with PEDs and scuffing a baseball are both forms of cheating. The problem is the average person laughs when a pitcher scuffs a ball or a hitter corks a bat. That same average person then cries out in horror if a player cheats in a way that harms his own body and/or creates an unhealthy precedent for kids.
