MILWAUKEE - Barry Bonds hit his 734th career home run Saturday night, breaking Hank Aaron's NL record in the same city where the Hall of Fame slugger started and ended his major league career.

The San Francisco Giants star hit a 1-0 pitch from Milwaukee's Chris Capuano over the right-center fence in the third inning, just out of the reach of outfielders Brady Clark and Corey Hart.

Bonds, who hit No. 733 and drove in a season-high six runs Friday night, is 21 homers shy of Aaron's career mark of 755. It was Bonds' 26th home run of the season.

Steroids.

Should not even be in the record book IMO.

He would have been a great player no matter what but he cheated.

I'm sure his frisco fans love him. But when he ties and breaks Aaron's career mark, I think there will be, unfortunately, a lot more media attention on this wreck.

Why don't you go old school with "60 - still the record"?
