Ah, what a long road Barry Bonds has to take to reach home run #755. In the past few games, the Los Angeles Dodgers just made his chances of tying Hank Aaron's all-time HR record a distant reality as well. If that's not enough, San Diego's going to make things even more difficult for Bonds as he chases that ever elusive 755th homer & a chance to eventually crack the record books.

So much for all the hype of him making baseball history anytime soon.

It seems that Bonds is still stuck at point A, trying to reach point B...you have to give credit to the opponents' pitching corps for keeping Barry in check so far. For a lot of folks who are anxiously anticipating him hitting #755, chances are it might be a long wait. Or should I say a really long wait.

But Padres pitcher Greg Maddux has been victimized regularly by Bonds for the longest time, giving up 8 homers to the man himself. The question is, can he clamp the screws down even tighter on Barry's quest to shatter a pretty formidable record? Of course he can...& I'm sure a lot of folks who can't stand Barry Bonds at all will agree.
