Here are the details of my friends ball...It is Bonds' HR #757, which broke the 756 record. It was a splash hit into McCovey Cove. It was marked, and authenticated by MLB. Then to top it off, I was present when Bonds signed it before a game in Sept., with the inscription, "God Bless" Now if I had the money, this would be the ball to have, if it was every put up for sale....

    very interesting. i think most people would rather have the ball that set the new record than the ball that sets the new ceiling. is it the anticipation and the historical significance that make its more valuable. people remember the first and last of things too. anyone have a reason to support my theory.

    I was at the 757 game and I am 99% sure it wasn't a splash hit. i know this because 757 landed where i was standing for 756

    regardless, it's a nice ball. i am just saying i don't think it was a splash hit

    Good Article about Barry Bonds giving back. Doesn't sound like he wants to return to baseball.

    Hi bondsfan

    Just for your information, go to the below listed link..I think this will clear up where 757 landed.. I was one of the kayakers who had a chance at it...

    kind of like saying "i quit!" after the boss fires you.

    good to see that after spending the year trying in vain to get signed, barry chose to go out on his own terms.
