Hey Barry Got Milk?

Published by admin | Filed under connections

I think Barry Bonds might need some milk or maybe some muscle milk to help get him over the hump. He just faced the Atlanta Braves in a 4 game series at home and one of those games was on his birthday. It seems like the right time to hit a couple of homeruns and would have tied the former Brave Hank Aaron for his record. Barry played in 3 of the 4 games, but failed to hit a homerun during the series. The Braves really didn’t pitch around him either and Barry took some big cuts at the plate. You could tell that he was swinging for the fences, but failed to connect on all the at-bats he had during the series.

Now the commissioner missed the first game of the series. He did decide to make the trip out to San Francisco to watch the rest of it and to see if Barry could become the all-time homerun king in Major League Baseball. I don’t think going into extra innings is what the commissioner had hoped for, when the first game he watched lasted 13 innings and finished up just after 2AM East Coast Time.

I think Barry is over swinging just a bit right now and probably needs to relax just a bit more at the plate. I don’t see anyone right now saying that Barry won’t hit the 3 homeruns he needs to have the record. I just think the longer it goes on will have a more negative view to the baseball community as many of them already have negative views on one of the greatest players to ever play baseball. I guess we will have to sit back and wait to see history being made as this story will continue…..
