Tonight, Barry Bonds has become the all-time homerun king of Major League Baseball.
Whether Barry Bonds did, or whether Barry Bonds didn’t, is likely to continue as a matter of discussion for baseball fans, and, maybe, for a few outside of baseball.
But for now, he has hit one more round-tripper than the classy Hank Aaron, who held the record for more than 30 years, and, who sent a congratulatory video message to Bonds that was played on the big center field screen at AT&T Park following the shot.
It’s a monumental achievement that, in my humble opinion, deserves to be recognized and congratulated. After all, he did hit the homeruns.

How history will treat the accomplishment will be up to others.
