715!


It would have been enough just to be sitting outdoors on a beautiful San Francisco afternoon, watching a baseball game in a beautiful park. The fact that Barry Bonds passed Babe Ruth for #2 on the list of career home runs was icing on the cake. It was a very exciting moment, and might be the only time I'll get a chance to witness baseball history in the making.

When Matt bought tickets to the game a month ago, I didn't think there was a chance we'd see the record-breaking blast. But Bonds slumped at the perfect time, hitting only one dinger between May 3 and yesterday (64 trips to the plate).

You've gotta check out a Giants game if you're ever in San Francisco. What a perfect location for a stadium. Well, it's time to catch a plane back to Mpls.

Very Cool! I was hoping you'd at least get a chance. Not too many people would appreciate that as much as you. i still hate Bonds, but you have to love having been there.

I corrected the title of the post, Steve. Thanks for pointing that out.
