The New York Times' Lee Jenkins notes:
Because Aaron hit so many of his home runs in Milwaukee, Bonds seems to believe it would be a fitting locale for his 700th. He was thrilled to have posted No. 699 in Phoenix, considering that he played college baseball at Arizona State, just a few miles away in Tempe. Bonds still maintains that Arizona State was the last place he played purely for the fun of it.
"This is where I pretty much started, it's where I got recognized, and where I got drafted," Bonds said after the game as his daughter, Aisha, blew bubbles next to him. "I wanted to do well here."
Still, if Barry fails to hit #700 in either of the first two night games at Miller Park, you know he's going to sit in the day game and come back to PacBell to make history at home, yet again. I know they're in a pennant race, and anything can happen, but doesn't it always seem to happen this way?
