Barry Bonds hit his 755th home run, to tie Hank Aaron's major league record. He hit it to left field in the new ballpark in San Diego, which is a tough place to hit a home run.
After he passes Aaron, next up is Sadaharu Oh's professional baseball record, 868. It may not happen. I guess he'll try for 3,000 hits first.
I don't know if he uses or used steroids or not. I know that baseball players have done many things over the years to get an edge, from drinking a lot of coffee to taking amphetamines, to throwing spitballs, shine balls, and burr balls, to holding onto the belt of the runner at third while the umpire wasn't watching.
I do know that steroids won't let someone who can't hit a baseball well hit a baseball well.
