Amazon.com listed “Juiced: Wild Times, Rampant ‘Roids, Smash Hits, and How Baseball Got Big” as third on its best seller list Monday. The book had an initial printing of 150,000 copies but it was unclear how many copies were bought. Regan Books does not disclose sales figures, spokeswoman Jennifer Suitor said. “I don’t think it’s a good thing, obviously, because it’s bringing a bad light to the game,” New York Yankees captain Derek Jeter said Monday. “This is a time, obviously, baseball is in a negative light and Jose is not helping out. In terms of his accusations, the only people that know are him and whoever he is accusing.
