As the KNBR announcer put it, "If you had written a script of this, no one would have believed it."
Today is Barry Bonds 39th birthday. In the top of the 9th inning, Arizona had two runners on base with no outs. Hillenbrand got a base hit into left field, and Craig Counsell, starting from 2nd base, rounded 3rd base at full tilt. Bonds, with a self-described "weak outfield arm," threw into home plate to get Counsell out.
Then, in the bottom of the 9th inning, Barry Bonds batted first. He swung on the first pitch and launched it into the seats behind center field, breaking the 2-2 tie and winning the ball game.
What else could a multi-millionaire baseball star want for his birthday?
