Open Thread: 8/4, Padres vs. Giants

Associated Press
Barry Bonds shows off his gut while taking early batting practice for the first time in forever. But he wasn't out there alone. He's really gripping, but someone was there to ease his mind. Someone was there that loves himself some Barry Bonds... Mike Cameron.
I'm hoping that Hensley doesn't get too carried away trying to prove himself. He really just needs to focus on winning this game and walk Bonds if he has to. I trust Maddux going after Bonds, Hensley is a different story. In his first start since his groin pull in the early season, he really doesn't need to get the idea in his head that he is jousting Bonds.
I always think it's weird when pitchers talk about going into history for giving up a big home run. Nobody remembers the pitchers. Who gave up the record breaking home run to Babe Ruth? Maris? Hell, who gave up #73 to Barry? Nobody knows and nobody cares. It's not about the pitchers and I think it's their egos that try to connect them to something great. They always say they don't want to be a part of history, but secretly they do.
P.S. -- Bradley is out again today because of his hamstring injury yesterday.
Experience it!!! Go Padres!!!

Two years ago on Opening Day. This picture was on the front page of the San Francisco Chronicle.
Since then, apparently the Padres have decided that when you enter Petco Park, your Freedom of Speech rights must stay outside the gates.
Last night, he tried to bring that same sign in... security guy at the gate called his supervisor, had to read the sign to him over the radio, and then was told (and told Steve) that the sign couldn't come in.
Good news... we said "Fuck it" and handed the sign under the gate by the playground in the Park at tha Park.

While in Coopestown
One of them spoke on the subject of fraternization and reminded organizations that there is a rule in place AGAINST fraternization.
Rule #3.09 was directly quoted in that letter (note the last line):
Players in uniform shall not address or mingle with spectators, nor sit in the stands before, during, or after a game. No manager, coach or player shall address any spectator before or during a game. Players of opposing teams shall not fraternize at any time while in uniform.
Side note... also kind of amusing that the same rule speaks to interaction with fans.

Just got back from the game
When Bonds hit the HR, I didn't cheer, didn't boo. I'm not a fan of the guy, and I've booed him my share in the past, but it didn't feel right to get into a booing/cheering match with the Giants fans. I don't think I've ever booed a guy hitting a HR before, so why start now.
Plus, with everything else that's going on with baseball and sports in general, Bonds is a jerk, and probably a cheating jerk, but there's a lot out there that's more deserving of our scorn. Compared to a guy like Leonard Little, Barry's a saint. Hell, I have more of a problem with LaRussa driving drunk than I do Barry doing steroids. In the grand scheme of things, it's just hard for me to get all that worked up about his cheating.
In the end, we got the W, and that's what I was there to see.
