Great American Park, Cincy, Bonds in LF, batting 4th, Griffey in RF, batting 3rd.
Looking into Reds' dugout from our seats.
Papers said this was most HRs on field (2 players) since Aaron and Mays together in early 70s.
Barry lives up to the moment with line drive into center-right that looked so perfect that Junior did not move in RF.
I saw Aaron hit 754 back in the mid-70s at County stadium in Milwaukee, so that was a real treat. Only 6 HRs hit above 750 and now I've seen 2!
Griffey 1st AB.
Alas, flies to right.
Bonds walked on 4 pitches, top of 3rd, two on and no out.
Top of 5
One out and runner on second. Bonds intentionally walked!
Zito walked in 2 runs to tie game, but still has no-hitter going.
Reds grand slam to go 7-3.
Bonds finally out in 3rd AB with F-7.
