Go Barry

While I was out BayConning, Barry Bonds broke Babe Ruth's career home run record. He had already broken the season record a few years ago.

I don't care if he is on steroids, smokes crack or abuses green M&M's, it takes more than drugs to be able to hit an object less than 3 inches in diameter, which is coming at you at more than 90 mph, using a stick with an effective surface area of maybe 5 square inches, solidly enough to make it travel about 400 feet.

And I'm happy he did it in the home park - the fans deserved a bit of a break from the otherwise Feliped-up team.
