So i got a call at about 6:20 ( less than an hour before the game) that my buddy had an extra ticket for tonights game , which was sold out. hopped on my motorcycle and speed over to the stadium just in time.
Shots are not great cause i had very little prep time blah blah.... I think iso is at 400 and 2.8 with a 400-500 curtain. I was a mad house though haha. Fans everywhere screaming and booing at their loudest.
History was not broken tonight, but it sure was flirted with.

4th hardest park to belt it out of. Most walked guy in history. Even if he did use the juice he is more than even steven compared to the odds against him.

Babe Ruth never played against blacks, was a drunk and a wife beater. People still think he's god. Please.

Excellent capture.


people will always try to stop you doing the right thing if it is unconventional
Full frame and some primes.

Amen.

Even the great Mickey Mantle...drunk, cheated on his wife....nearly killed her once in a car crash. Pete Rose..a.k.a. Charlie Hussle...we all know what he did....there is a HUGE!!!!! list.

Barry Bonds is without a doubt great. And not only that he hit it to opposite. Not many in the league can do that like he can.

Mick & Babe were drunk hitting them out instead of juiced, there's a difference there. The negative stuff they did was off the field and didn't help there performance, actually it probably hindered it. Barry never had to face spit ballers or guys scuffing the ball to get better movement and plays in a time where the league is all about helping the hitter (home runs put butts in the seats) by having batters eyes, uniform restrictions of the pitchers to not distract the hitter, better lighting, better equipment, smaller parks, etc, etc. Impossible argument to put them head to head, but you can bet Barry probably hasn't ate a hot dog and slammed a beer in between innings then hit one out like the Babe did :) There's a long list of jerks in professional sports that did stupid things mentioned above, just imagine if it was Sammy Sosa or Mark McGwire breaking the record with allegations - still wouldn't be as much hatred towards them as there is Barry just because he's a jerk and always has been (thats the perception at least). Definately would of been interesting to be there to shoot it.

Oh boy...I know this thread is going to get ugly real fast. Can we stick to photography? Besides, these photos are color images, not black and white. :rolleyes:
