BP's Unfiltered says it's 8.5%. So you're telling me there's a chance ... We have all dreams. Some are truly important, life changing types. Run a marathon. Fancy job, home in the 'burbs, what have you. For others, like me, you wish for Barry to somehow slip up on the way to the home run title.
After his impressive April, I decided to confront the fact he'd like break the record sometime right about now actually. "Let's just get this over with."
But now Bonds is hampered by shin splints and has only hit one home run since May 9th. News like that is music to a Bonds-haters ears. Despite the fact he's clearly struggling and injured, he insisted he's playing
"I won't go on the DL," Bonds said. "Don't count on seeing me on the DL -- ever. I won't let myself. I will work hard. I will play through it."So much for that wishful thinking, but this recent slump does have me considering the possibility, while slim, that he doesn't break the record this season. A baseball fan can dream.
Then again, the way my sports fandom goes ... he's likely to break the record here at Wrigley during the July 16th-19th series in my presence. Wouldn't that just be something.
