I have wondered how many pitchers were on steroids that struck Bonds out, or caused him to ground out or how many homers he would have if he hadn’t been intentionally walked almost 700 times. This is not a defense of the accusations just thoughts to fuel the fire so.... FLAME AWAY.
I was struck by his arrogance and disgust each time he was walked. They were throwing to him. They weren’t intentionally walking him like they did McGwire a few years back when no one wanted to be “the one” who gave up the historic homerun. On each of his walks last night, there were called strikes AND he even swung at a few. He even got down 0-2 one one of his last at bats. But his flip of the bat, ripping off of the arm cover, and disgusted look on his face showed that he feels he is owed this record. It’s gonna happen. I don’t want it to happen. I wish it were just over with so he’d be out of the limelight again.
