Do you? Does any sensible person care? Well, yes, some do…like me. I care because it’s an absolute disgrace that a record achieved by a man who was one of the best pure hitters and biggest HR threats during a very pitching oriented era, and had to endure racism throughout his career, has been broken by a shameless piece of shit like Barry Bonds. Now, Aaron has also not been considered the true HR king sometimes because he did it in many more at bats than Ruth, which is true. Ruth is the greatest HR hitter of all time, bar none (and don’t give me “Mark McGwire’s AB/HR ratio is lower!” Fuck Mark McGwire for obvious reasons). However, nobody else compiled that many HR. The guy was a HR machine year-in and year-out for almost 20 years. And he wasn’t just a HR hitter, he was an awesome player. I mean, for his career, he was:
.305/.374/.555
156 OPS+ (15 seasons above 150, that’s nuts)
1402 BB/1382 K
.326 eqA
76 FRAA
210.7 WARP3
Watching Bonds hit that HR last night was about as sickening and revolting as it could get. And the bastard got to do it in San Francisco in front of all his idiot fans. I hate Mets fans, but I wish that the Giants had to go to Shea again this year so Bonds could possibly get some harmful objects thrown at him, though I bet that pussy (and yes, I’m sure he has one now since the more severe side effect of excessive steroid use is total disintegration of male genitalia and the creation of a vagina) wouldn’t play. Congratulations, Barry. Enjoy your tenure as HR king that nobody gives a shit about that won’t last longer than 6-7 years because you’ll either be dead or ARod will overtake your ass.
