Bonds at 760
Bonds extended baseball’s home run record to 760 with a two-run shot in the fifth inning off Rick VandenHurk, putting the San Francisco Giants ahead to stay in their 4-3 win over the Florida Marlins on Saturday night.
He struck out in his first two appearances against VandenHurk, later saying part of the problem was that he couldn’t find soft dirt to plant his feet in the batter’s box. But he hit the right spot in his third at-bat, delivering his 26th homer of the season — a 444-footer to right-center field.
