Bonds and Google defections
Barry hit number 754, so like him or hate him, he's only one home run away from the all time home run record. As with most things in life, I find a withhold my emotions and opinions about things until after events happen. The media and seemingly everyone else in this country has already given their opinions on this topic. It is amazing to me how political an issue like this can be. You have people like Curt Schilling (probably my least favorite major leaguer) saying this, that and the other about Barry as people try to get their opinions out there to prove their moral superiority. I guess there isn't much difference between this and all the other moral issues in society. Just to not change anything, I'll not add any gas to this fire other than to keep watching my team.
On Wednesday night, I went to the game against the Braves. It was a fun game to watch as Lowery dominated a tough Atlanta lineup. I also had a great time with my good friends Zach and Shreyes. The game finished 2-1 with a Pedro Feliz RBI and a Rich Arillia homer giving all the Giants offense. While Shreyes and his friend were more interested in the home run chase, it was great for me to get out to the ballpark for the first time since May and just relax and enjoy a ballgame. I missed just sitting around and talking about all the good old times when the Giants were good.
Tonight's game, (Friday) has been one of the more exciting games I've watched this season. It started out with Bonds' big home run and there have been tons of lead changes. I guess that's what happens when a very hittable Barry Zito runs into a good hitting Florida Marlin's team that also lacks good pitching. Its not over yet, but we'll see how this ends.
It has been good to see Pedro Feliz start hitting. The Giants could solve a lot of their problems if he could be a big run producing corner infielder.
A very good engineer from Code Green put in his 2 weeks as he is going to move to Google. It is really hard to see good people leave, but I am happy for him and I do see his new gig as very beneficial for him. I learned a lot from him as he helped me learn a ton about the Japanese language and Japanese culture. He was both a medical doctor and a good programmer and he definitely will be missed. I think he'll be a really great fit at Google.
