It’s a Celebration!

The Giants indicated today they will celebrate when and if Bonds passes Babe Ruth:

The Giants brass is brainstorming exactly what to do if Bonds ties Ruth for second place on career list with 714 homers, and then how to honor him if he passes the Babe. Bonds begins the season with 708 home runs.
“It’s certainly not going to go unnoticed or uncommemorated,” Baer said. “He’s our player and it would be a tremendous accomplishment. We don’t have a hold on what we’re going to do. It won’t be silence.”

And the Giants have a good reason to celebrate:

The Giants have already sold about 2.5 million tickets, nearly the same number as last season at this time. Magowan isn’t concerned about a fallout from the steroids reports, saying: “I’m pretty confident. I think we know our fans pretty well and the fans like Barry and they show up to see him perform. I suspect they will again.”

Baseball Musings is conducting a pledge drive in March. Click here for details.

    hopefully its not to late. Maybe there is still time..we as a country need to invade California and reclaim it in the name of the United States of America…..that California place is not the real world….The California problem is as paramount as global warming is.
