Barry Bonds hits #660.

I suppose the steroid flap and the war kept his approach to this great milestone from getting much hype. I had forgotten all about it.

Whatever you think about the allegations of steroid use, he has a lifetime batting average of .298. (Here are his stats.) He's a great hitter. Steroids don't help that and usually hurt you that way.

Maybe I'm mistaken, but I understand he's pretty good in the field as well. I can't make heads nor tails out of fielding stats. Looks like very few errors and quite a few putouts. I don't watch NL games much, hence my ignorance.
