Barry Bonds home run in Yankee Stadium appreciaton thread

[Amateur Riot]

He and Junior's swing...

 

[Crown Bearer]

Balls just sounded different off Barry's bat .

There have been others that have hit the upper deck at Yankee Stadium, but they were usually just high shots that fell in. That shot went out with so much force tho . shyt would've knocked the 4 train off its track

Had my nikka only stayed healthy.

Junior . I'm a Yankee fan, but Junior was always my favorite player

Memories of spending hours playing MLB feat Junior for N64

I miss my Griffey Air Max's

Prettiest swing ever

That's Junior for me, but Barry is right there. Always loved Sheffield's swing too

The timing mechanism. The load up. The follow through.

at the voters keeping him out of the HoF

Bonds and Griffey :wows:

I feel like Griffey staying healthy and getting a ship in Sea(more positive exposure) might have changed the amount and landscape of black mlb players today

I agree. He was such a marketable player. A World Series win would have put him on 's level. Young brehs would probably still be fukking with baseball heavy had Griffey not sustained all those injuries.

Greatest player and maybe the greatest hitter ever too. He had pitchers fearing him and anything near the strike zone was usually a hit for him.

 

[the cool]

the best part of the video was seeing old yankee stadium and how crunk it used to be. im not even a yankees fan

 

[sfgiants]

some girl took me there form y birthday one year and they was like "$20 to upgrade the seats to front row 1st base line" I was $20 each ? they was like nah $20 total, $10 per ticket I was like the fukk kinda cheap ass shyt is this

this was the year before ichiro got traded to the yankees

A's had a good run in the early 2000s, when they had those drummers in the left field bleachers. shyt was fun

Adam Jones dropping truth. Junior made the backwards hat cool and popular, and his influence still felt today with everyone wearing 42 on Jackie Robinson day

Just the epitome of #blackexcellence . We really were blessed to watch guys like him and Bonds in their primes.

My two dudes in the 90s, brehs. They just couldn't stay healthy.

Old Yankee Stadium was great and I'm not even a fan. The atmosphere was ridiculous. That place would be shaking. The new place with all the corporate suits is quiet as fukk. It sucks.
