This * Day In Baseball History
2007 - In front of very supportive home crowd at AT&T Park, Barry Bonds surpasses Hank Aaron as the all-time home run leader as he connects on 3-2 pitch for #756 off southpaw Mike Bacsik of the Nationals. During the 10-minute celebration following the historic homer, a surprise video message is played on the scoreboard in which Hammerin’ Hank congratulates the Giants' left fielder for breaking the 33-year old record. Bud Selig was not in attendance.

1. You know, I was actually happy and excited when Bonds broke the record.
Amazing how eight months of continuous douchitude here, changed my opinion.

8. So being merely great wasn't good enough for him
He had to use PEDs to make himself the best because his ego would stand for nothing less.
