Six Behind Rickey
I guess I haven't been paying attention, but Barry's only six walks behind Rickey Henderson for the all-time lead in that category. Now, if he were to break Hank Aaron's home run record after grabbing the walks record, that would really be something. Oh, and he collected his 1,300th extra-base hit last night, the 3-run homer in the 4th. Aaron's at the top of that list too, with 1,477, and then Stan Musial, Babe Ruth and Willie Mays follow up. Barry is in fifth place.
Also, it's just weird, but the Giants, despite their horrific start, have the fourth-best record in baseball. Fourth-best!! Only the Yankees, Cardinals and Rangers are better, percentage-wise. Crazy stuff.
