Vin Scully Avoids His Fate

The legendary Dodgers broadcaster, Vin Scully, was quite ambivalent about the prospect of calling Barry Bonds’ 755th home run to tie Hank Aaron’s record. No worries though, as Bonds managed only one hit, a single, in the three-game series against the Dodgers. The Giants’ road trip concludes this weekend against the San Diego Padres. Tomorrow’s pitching matchup should be good, the hard-luck Matt Cain for the Giants against Greg Maddux for the Padres.

Meanwhile, I have a new favorite baseball site, The Hardball Times. Insightful daily snippets of news and analysis, nothing too overwhelming.
