Batter Number 25…..
Posted in: Sports
Barry Bonds got a standing ovation at AT & T Park last night…. and he was just sitting in the stands. And when he was joking around with Jon Miller, Duane Kuiper and Mike Krukow on the broadcast, I couldn’t help but imagine him in a Giants uniform again. Are you kidding? It would be the biggest story in baseball. He’s reviled in every other ballpark, but he’s loved in the Bay. Can you just see it? Low scoring Giants tied at 3-3, bottom of the 10th against the league-leading Dodgers… nobody out, bases full. Out of the dugout comes Number 25… who would want to face him? It might as well be the late Babe Ruth coming out with a bat…. it would be that electrifying. I know he’s got baggage…. But remember, if Charles Manson could hit .357, he’d just be “misunderstood.”



I hate Barry Bonds and hate the Giants. I bleed Dodger Blue, but that’s VERY FUNNY, Mr. Nakashima!!
