Barry Bonds Just Misses Tying* Willie Mays with 660 home runs (*in Libertarian record book)
espn tv | 4/11/04 | pete rose

Back, back, back, back, back, back...but not quite far enough. So he's still on 659. On ESPN right now, SF at San Diego(nice stadium.) Clearly a hard-earned feat, those shots always hurt a bit. Congrats Barry, you're about to ride the illegal performance enhancement dope into the Giants' record book.

So can he surpass* Hank Aaron before the feds prosecute?

Barry: "Sosa how are you getting around the steroid testing this year?

Sammy: "Remember Barry, steroid tests don't pick up human growth hormone."

Ever since I heard his racist remarks about the Babe, I hope he never reaches 714.

There has been 1 regular season homerun, by Grissom of the Giants. In a preseason game against the Mariners on 4-3, there were 5 in the game. No Padre regular season jacks yet.

P.S. To Bruce Bochy, quit yanking starters so d**m quick, Peavy was still throwing well, and looked what happened.

(nice stadium.)

If you think what was shown in TV is nice, the outside and
surrounding area is great.
I live around 2 miles up the street from the park

I live in San Carlos area.....Every year I get so darned
peeved at some of Bochy's strategic moves? My own conclusion is that he is a "wanna be liked" guy-especially
by his ballplayers....always trying to get everyone in the game or so it seems...backfires a good pctg. of time....
Starters must get a little peeved when they leave in 7th &
with nice lead and it is blown...Wells had no decision afterleaving with a lead and shutout??? Jake

It seems this has been one of the main sore spots.
Hope he will catch on soon.
