I Saw Baseball History Made Tonight

[GoldenGate]

I was lucky to be sitting near home plate at Pac Bell Park tonight when Barry Bonds hit his 600th home run, WOW
What a thrill!!!!!!
He now joins only three other players; Hank Aaron, Babe Ruth and Willie Mays who have hit 600 home runs. But Barry only took one year to go from 500 to 600 home runs.

I am so lucky to have seen Barry hit his 73rd run last season and now this.

Wow that's awesome! That would have been cool to see

 

[CBRorBust]

That is very cool! You should write something down on this. It would be very neat to share with kids, grandkids later on one day.

Congratulations.....


We saw it, too. During the Braves game, they cut over to Pac-Bell. It was very exciting. There will be a lawsuit over the ball, of course. I think we saw at least two different people holding it up. One of the guys looked a little beat up. That was just sad.

 

[Serena]

That would have been really exciting.

 

[cotye]

Cool.

 

[nativetxn]

Cool, and Willie Mays is Barry's God father!!

 

[WillyJ]

Too cool Golden Gate!!


Barry may not be the nicest guy in the world, and from all accounts he sucks as a teammate with his recliner and big screen TV in his own personal "compound" . . . .

But there is no denying he is one of the all-time greats, and he deserves all the accolades he's been getting the past couple years. . . that was a big moment in baseball history you witnessed. .

 

[Doctor P]

What an experience that must have been. It's quite an accomplishment. Nice guy or not, Bonds has really not ever gotten the respect he deserves as a great player.

GO GIANTS!!!!!!!!!

My dad doesn't like Barry Bonds, ever since he beat Mark McGuire's single season homerun record (My dad is a BIG St. Louis Cardinals fan)

How cool Golden Gate! We have friends with season tix - I can't wait to hear which family members were there! We were watching the A's game (which was into extra innings) & FoxSports would cut over to the Giants game every time Barry came up - it was fun when they were showing both games, split screen!
Love the graphic Olena!
