I believe Bonds came out of the game after hitting the HR.

Bonds has hit 756!
With one out in the fifth inning, Bonds hit a 3-2 pitch from the Washington Nationals' Mike Bacsik deep into the seats at AT&T Park.
Now if you'll excuse me, I think I'm going to puke!
Go A Rod go!!!!!

I am happy he did it, now the sports shows can talk about it for the next two days and it will be over (hopefully!). I am tired of hearing about if there should be an * beside it or what speculation there is. He did it, let him have it, Arod will beat it.

Agreed! Plus she has a very rich daddy so that puts her put a few rating points than she would really get!

How happy do you think he about that, at least this way he didn't get caught just standing around with his hands in his pockets. He looked so akward after 755

Add to the fact he's good friends with Aaron, i'm sure he quite relieved to have not been there. If he was i'm sure his comments would have been analyzed from here to eternity considering the contraversy regarding Bonds and Steriods.
And yes I did read about the hands in his pockets comment when Barry hit the tying HR. My chuckle for the day.

Selig skips Bonds to meet with Mitchell
NEW YORK—Bud Selig decided to get together with George Mitchell this week rather than watch Barry Bonds. The baseball commissioner and some of his top aides are scheduled to meet with the chief steroids investigator later this week, a person with knowledge of the session said Tuesday.
The person spoke on condition of anonymity because he wasn't allowed to discuss the meeting.

Selig's "Herculean effort" gets an asterisk
All Bud did was go to some baseball games," said an MLB source who requested anonymity. "By our count, he went to 11 of 16 games -- and three of those games were in Milwaukee, where he always goes to the games anyway. Plus, he has a private jet to fly him around, so it's not like he has to deal with taking his shoes off at security or sitting in a middle seat having to watch 'You, Me and Dupree.'"
Further, the official noted, when Bonds tied Aaron's record, "Bud didn't even attempt an insincere smile or to clap unenthusiastically. He just stood up, stuffed his hands in his pockets and looked like he'd eaten a bad bratwurst .

I am kinda on the fence about this because nothing has been proven but some things are a "little" obvisious.
However I am really happy I got to see it live on TV and just watch the whole at bat pitch by pitch, I will remember the young pitcher going right after Bonds knowing he could be "That guy" who gave up the Bonds homer.
He may be a tool and he may have cheated but he still put up some amazing numbers and it will be a cool thing when Stray-Rod is close to beating the Bonds record and I can say to whoever is around me "I remember watching Barry hit 756"

Unlike father, Bacsik can't prevent home run No. 756
By JOSH DUBOW / Associated Press
In a remarkable coincidence, Mike Bacsik and his father both had the rare opportunity to face a great home run slugger with 755 home runs.
The only difference is that the father didn't allow Hank Aaron to hit another one 31 years ago and the son did give one up to Barry Bonds — the record-breaking 756th, in fact.
Like Bonds, Bacsik is the son of a major leaguer. He and his father, also named Mike, enjoy a truly remarkable connection. While Clyde and Jaret Wright and Pedro Borbon Sr. and Jr. are among the father-son pitching tandem to face the two sluggers, only the Bacsiks got the chance when both had 755 career home runs.

Thing is, Bacsik actually pitched Barry pretty well that at bat. That low fastball that Barry took was a great pitch, the sweeping curve with 2 strikes was great call, and probably would have gotten a lot of other hitters out. Even the first full count pitch was good, and Barry really fought to foul it off. The HR ball was right down the pipe - he's gotta know better than that.

He said the pile formed and then the ball just appeared to roll out of it, where he picked it up!!
That's AWESOME!!

Any word on if he gave it to Bonds?

Would you?
I was thinking about that last night, and the way Bonds has done everything in such a selfish, "Barry looks after Barry" manner, I'd give Barry a chance to beat any other offer I would get, but no way in hell I would just give it to him.
Barry deserves the same respect he gives his teammates, the media, and the fans, which is to say little.
