  • bonds looking good...

    even without a wig and dress.

    bonds homered in his first game swing in five days for his 4th this spring in but 12 at-bats.
    he also patrolled left field for 6 innings and felt fine afterwards.

    Uh, I think "looking good" is underestimating it! I can't think of very many players performing like this under the type of scrutiny he's under. Walking up to the plate after 5 days and going yard on the first pitch they see. Sure, it's still in Spring Training, but one can't help but be impressed.

      it takes tremendous mental discipline, ken, yer right.

      the irony is that bonds seems to be fueled and propelled by all the clamoring.
      he strives to prove others that he can achieve. to prove 'em wrong.

        I'm sure he has a great deal of mental discipline but I also think he lacks the integrity required to make anyone feel the sort of pressure he's not experiencing right now.
