Bar-ry! Bar-ry! Bar-ry! Bar-ry! Bar-ry! Bar-ry! Bar-ry! Bar-ry! Bar-ry!
He did it again.
Barry Bonds his the first pitch he saw from Trey Hodges into the center-field bleachers for his second walk-off home run in three games. And I had the theme from the "Superman" movies in my head all night.
The guy's unbelievable.
He's moving closer to Willie Mays on the all-time home run list. I'll be sitting in the bleachers next to the pool at Bank One Ballpark on Labor Day. With my glove. Ready to catch home run ball 660 or 661. I will run over children to get that ball if I need to. I'll also return from that trip with an analysis of the ballpark, and see how it measures up to other stadiums I've been to (the list is pretty much comprised of the ones on the West Coast).
The three-game sweep over Atlanta now puts the Giants just 4.5 games behind the Braves for first in the N.L. We--
Ahem. Sorry. Both teams retain large leads in their separate and distinct divisions.
That Ozzy Osbourne Situation Has Me Reeling: The band I am in has one original song down. And I think we're pretty happy with it. But last night I had a dream--nay, a nightmare. I dreamed that Ozzy Osbourne sang his own rendition of the song. Then I had to kill him in the dream.
White Sox Take Over: Chicago has taken over first place from the Royals. Generally once a Cinderella story starts to fade, it's over once it gives up first place. We'll see if Kansas City follows this pattern, like I am suspecting they will.
