Blocking out the moment. Reading the pitcher. Staying focused on the win. Bonds breaks down the mindset behind his 500th career home run — and what it felt like once the ball was gone.

Barry needs to be in hall of fame.
The greatest to ever do it
Imagine how many homeruns if his home ballpark wasn’t candlestick and Oracle
Barry, for all his faults, always sounds so incredibly knowledgeable about the game and so wise. It’s really cool to hear the man talk about baseball.
Best hitter ever
The greatest Barry Bonds video is the one of Jim Leyland giving him the business for the person he really is
Every one of us is like this, but celebrities of all sorts kinda get pigeonholed and typecast. And Bonds’ typecast is often that of “insufferable prick.” Whether that’s right or wrong, or like all of us he just has good days and bad days, he does not exude any of that kind of energy here. Which, if you’re insufferable, you would when talking about huge lifetime public accomplishments, right?
Do you think his dad was disappointed he raised a cheater?
Tina Turner has a song about him. Simply the best.
Ya cheater.
Hall of Famer Barry Bonds.
… eventually.
I don’t care what people say, Barry will remain one of the greatest ball players of all time in my book. I grew up in the SF bay area and Bonds was my fav athlete once he came to the giants.

No way Barry is 60. He looks 40.
In honour of the man
