On Barry Bonds Weekend, it’s important to remember why there’s a Barry Bonds Weekend in the first place: home runs. Sure, Barry Bonds was already on his way to the Hall of Fame for his overall hitting ability as well as a complimentary base stealing acumen, but he helped the Giants make AT&T Park the premiere destination in MLB and put the Giants on his back for 5 straight years to start the 21st century because he could hit the ball high, far, and deeeeeeeeep, sometimes into McCovey Cove, sometimes to the deepest part of the yard, and frequently over the fences.
The Giants have hit the fewest home runs in baseball over the past 10 years
