FOX Sports:
Barry Bonds finally caught Babe Ruth on Saturday in Oakland, blasting home run No. 714 off A's pitcher Brad Halsey. Bonds had been homerless in nine consecutive games, and is now tied for No. 2 on the all-time homer chart, just 41 behind Hank Aaron.

(to tune of the Rice a Roni jingle)
Bonds, the phony
The San Francisco cheat!

How much will the person who caught it net for that
record*-setting ball?

I don't put much stock in home run records these days. There are lots of better players who just don't hit home runs. RBIs are where it's at.

1974:
Move over Babe, here comes Henry
And he's swingin' mean
Move over Babe, Hank's hit another
He'll hit that 714

There's a man from Alabam
Hammerin' Henry is his name
He's on the Braves home run express
Doin' what he does the best

from Baseball's Greatest Hits
