This was my cousin who gave up the grand slam

that was easily over 500 ft

That’s 570+

And why is barry bonds not in haĺ of fame

The best ever!!! Yes I came of age in 86. I wanted to be him. I went on my honeymoon to watch him get 756. (My wife is a baseball fan also). Missed 756 by one game. Milwaukee guy, so he was a God that I didn't see until interleague and then Milwaukee going to National League. But yeah. He was that dude. Like people talk about Ruth or Mays, Williams or DiMaggio. Aaron. There's nobody like him today. He was that cool. I used to get tickets 3rd row just closer to home plate from Milwaukee dugout, and I would watch him in the SF Dougout and he was the shit. He was another coach. He's not the asshole media made him out to be. He was coaching up the youngster at the pitchers and aggressively coached Jeff Kent. BP was must see when Barry was in town!! Los Angeles, San Diego, S.F. MKE . Dude crushed EVERY ballpark. RUTH is the only comparison really. I saw it.

If your really look. You can see his body changing over time. It was way more gradual than people made it.

I don’t give a damn what Bonds was on, or not on, damn he was fun to watch!

Definitely one of the greatest cheaters of all time!

I'm glad that I saw Barry Bonds from my childhood to adulthood, and Yes I bought tickets just to see Barry. Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio, Ted Williams, Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, Roberto Clemente. BARRY Bonds. He's in that pantheon whether you like it or not. Get him in the HOF.

I refuse to believe Ruth in 1921 hit a home run over a 100 ft farther than any of Bonds or Griffey

2002-06-06 04:00:00 PDT San Diego -- Babe Ruth would have lit a cigar. Lou Gehrig would have tipped his cap. Roger Maris would have offered a handshake. Mickey Mantle would have made a toast. Barry Ballgame would have wowed 'em all. In the game before his debut at Yankee Stadium, where left-handed swingers go to be enshrined, Barry Bonds hit a ball where no ball has gone before. Over the right-field wall. Over the palm trees. Over the 20 rows of seats. Over the wheelchair section. And off the scoreboard. It's believed to be a Qualcomm Stadium first. In typical Bonds fashion, nothing was typical about it. It was a grand slam, and it lifted the left fielder, with 587 career homers, past Frank Robinson and into fourth place on the all-time list. The Giants beat the Padres 12-2 Wednesday, and the only number anyone in the Giants' clubhouse wanted to discuss was 482. That's the stadium computer nerds' estimate (in feet) of Bonds' homer, and nobody was buying it. "That's the longest 482 I've ever seen," said manager Dusty Baker, adding he has never seen a longer home run. "I guess they don't want people to hit the ball 500." Tom Goodwin, a runner on second base, said, "If that's not 500 feet, I'm not sure a ball can be hit 500 feet." "It seemed like it was more like 501," Reggie Sanders said. "It would've hit the glove in San Francisco." A chair is painted white among a sea of blue seats in the loge section in left field, signifying where Mark McGwire hit a ball in 1998. Here's why these measurements are so unscientific: The day it was hit, McGwire's homer was estimated at 458 feet -- obviously on the low side. Wednesday, stadium manager Bill Wilson entered the press box and supplied a revised tale of the tape: 490 feet. That's 8 feet farther than Bonds'. But the Padres' public relations department was sticking with 458 and calling Bonds' blast the longest in stadium history, at least since they started making these wild guesses in 1988. Old-timers talked about a monster homer by Willie McCovey in the early '70s, landing a section or two over, but nobody had documentation. "I don't think about how far I hit a home run. I think about wins and losses," said Bonds, who was in a reserved mood despite a feat beyond Ruthian proportions. "They said I hit one further off (Robb) Nen in San Francisco." That was at Candlestick when Nen was a Marlin. The estimated distance was 488 feet, but who really knows? Padres starter Dennis Tankersley was wild all Wednesday afternoon and plunked Rich Aurilia in the third inning to load the bases for Bonds, who swung at the first pitch (a sinker that had no sink) and hit it so high and so far that he froze in the batter's box a little longer than normal just to admire it. He took five tiny steps out of the box before beginning his historic jog past Robinson, who fell to fifth place on the homers chart. "After we saw (Tankersley) face the first six, seven guys, it became kind of easy to pick up his pattern," Bonds said. "He didn't have much control over anything else but his fastball. He likes to throw his sinker away to lefties. If it doesn't sink, it's going to stay up. I covered the plate on it." Bonds' 11th career grand slam gave the Giants a 5-1 lead, and it was an afternoon of glee after that. The Giants scored in five straight innings, and pitcher Ryan Jensen didn't know what to do with all the support, other than to throw first-pitch fastballs that mystified the Padres. Jensen has had the worst run support in the rotation, an average of 1.7 runs per game (10 starts, 17 runs). Wednesday, the score was 12-2 by the time he left after seven innings. Jeff Kent and David Bell had three hits, and Aurilia homered in his second game following elbow surgery, but history will show this game belonged to Bonds. For the record, his teammates were probably more excited about the homer than he was. "I think I watched it longer than Barry did," said Jensen, who was a runner at third base. If one wasn't enough, Bonds had a crack at a second grand slam in the fifth inning, but he popped up off Rodney Myers. "He made a pretty good pitch, a slider, a little bit down," Bonds said. "I tried to cover too much of the plate and tried to hit it the other way, but he jammed me a little bit because I was overextended on it. That's baseball. It happens." Bonds was pulled in the sixth inning, replaced by Shawon Dunston. He's got a big weekend ahead, his first visit to Yankee Stadium, and now he's well- rested as well as well-tuned. History awaits.

HOFer, then the Steroids. Hope he gets in one day, but he cheated Hank and the HR Record. 💉💉💉

Is he kissing a little girl in the 2:34 i mean. I'm a huge fannnnn but I'm very confused by that image and it seems no one else 🤨 that is not his daughter no?

JUICED!

That isnt a home game lol

That was a bomb! Steroid slam!

The Tiger Woods of baseball.

Dont get it, he threw it right down the middle to the best hitter of all time. Mistake in location? Not thinking? What?

"This one is a monster!"

482 feet??? Yeah maybe where it struck the scoreboard……What a monster shot, never saw this before

#25 #GOAT The #1 reason I fell in love with baseball

Wow love it ❤

Wow ❤😊

The greatest mlb hitter who ever lived

Y'all see that 76 sign on the scoreboard.... In bp Bonds and glenallen hill hit it... Well Ghill was a bit more to.the left but it was an.absolute BOMB!!! Furthest hr I've seen.til this day

Title doesn't do the production on this video justice Great video

GOAT

Padres fan. That’s the longest homer I’ve ever seen at the Murph/Q. Period.

The greatest ever!!! 🖕🏾the HOF for holding their nuts on him

The question of juicing is always going to surface whenever Barry’s Name comes up!

How quickly we forget…. If all of a sudden somebody named me the manager of an MLB team, the first thing I would do is teach all my hitters PETE ROSE 101!! I am a die-hard Dodgers fan so no bias…but the most reliable clutch hitter in my 90 yrs watching MLB {eye was the most impressive!

Jeeze!His head grew 8X from season 1 to the last season in SF!

By far the best hitter and best player ever. No question and I'm a Dodger fan. Put him in the fucking hall. Rose too😢

I remember going out to breakfast with my family and seeing the front page of the newspaper announcing his signing with the Giants and being giddy with excitement for my favorite player to have signed with my team 🎉

I was at this game with my Dad as a teen. Great memory.

he will never be in the Hall...never!!!!!!!!!!!

I guess that's what Steroids can do for somebody!

Just amazing

Big deal. Brandon Crawford also hit one 482 feet earlier this year.

I hope Barry Bonds knows just how great he really was... The greatest player to ever play baseball.

Pre-steroid Bonds was a more exciting player because he could do it all. Bonds was a five-tool player; he could steal bases, hit for average and with power, and play great defense. No one today comes close to what he was during his prime years.

Rarely, but sometimes I forget he's the greatest. My mistake.

Keeping Bonds out of the Hall of Fame is really a discredit to everyone who is already in. Is it the Hall of Fame or the Hall of Popularity? Rose and Clemens absolutely belong in the HOF as well

What sucks most about his legacy is that before he ate his balanced breakfast, he was gonna go down as one of the greatest players of all time. It is incredibly rare to see a player that did everything, and I mean EVERYTHING, and was great at it. By far the greatest combination of power and speed the league has ever seen. He’s won the most gold gloves out of every qualified left fielder, and he was no question the best player of the 90’s even with McGwire and Sosa going on home run chases. There wasn’t one flaw in his game. But then the steroids happened and it’s gonna forever ruin his legacy and taint the public opinion of him. It’s tragic

Klay is a splash sister

Greatest player to ever play the game....period!

Barry bonds leveled the playing field and it showed how much more better he was than anyone else playing at the time

Roider SCUMBAG! Keep your cheating black ass OUT of the HOF!

you know what is incredible? - is that if you look at Barry's head in the close-up, @11:09 it doesn't move at all - or very little. There's so much balance there, so much keeping his head still while he is hitting - keeping his eyes on the ball throughout.. simply amazing - the best swing in MLB history

Barry Bonds the GREATEST MLB player PERIOD...Pure Excitement...if you missed watching him play you missed the G.O.A.T.
