    Jim,

    Great photo!

    Look at Aaron and Mays, 1415 homers between them and they are look like dwarfs compared to the likes of Bonds and McGwire and even Bench and Stargell!

    Pure unadulterated baseball skill and talent untainted by growth hormones or steriods.

    Those were the glory years of baseball when men were men!

    Always looking for 1973,1986,1988,1999,2000,2006 game used Mets post season and Bobby M. Jones and Ed Hearn NY Mets game used bats.
