Really getting nostalgic for this era
How could you not be romantic about baseball!?!? lol
I miss the days when there weren’t ads everywhere
I miss Rivera. “Here comes a cutter!” Strike one. “Here comes a cutter!” Broken bat. “Here comes a cutter”. K.

I would love to see this with today’s resolution. I’ve seen, I think it was Strawberry, say that it doesn’t look like his pitch is moving much on TV but in the box it moved a ton. And Chipper said they had no idea what approach to take to be able to hit it cause it moved so much and so late.
Love or hate him you gotta admit bonds had aura to spare. Especially brick shithouse roided bonds
GOAT vs Most overrated cheater of all time.
Shame those teams never met in the world series. Would have been fun.
Was at this game. Called his 3-r bomb off Ted Lilly. He crushed it into the upper deck RF. Into the tunnel I believe.
there’s only one Goat there and he’s in the hof
I remember this!! I had never seen Bonds swing at a pitch way out of the zone before. Crazy stuff.
Mo was the GOAT.
Before Bonds wore body armor
19th time all year unreal
Man. We were so spoiled by Mariano.
It’s never been the same after he retired.
Damn I miss both of them
After the AB, I remember Bonds mouthing the word “Nasty”.
Man I miss old Yankee stadium.
I was at this game. Yanks ended up losing and earlier Bonds hit the longest HR I’ve ever seen hit that would’ve landed in Brooklyn if the upper deck wasn’t in the way
1 goat 1 cheater
🎶Womp womp womp womp womp🎶
This is glorious!
You know Bonds was fucking pissed he never got another crack at Mo lol
I was at this game. Took the ACTs that morning and went to the game with my family. Electric crowd at the strikeout.
