I am quite sure Zone is referring to A-Rod; however, have something deeper to add.

What would the discussions about Bonds be like if Selig stepped in and ran interference on Barry's Career HR record chase in the manner Zone is alluding to? Imagine if the Commissioner had taken steps to prevent Bonds from breaking Aaron's record.

Instead of doing this...when he had the power to do so, Bud stood alongside Barry...with a look on his face that resembled a grown man sucking on a lemon...while Hammerin' Hank delivered a video of his "congratulatory" speech.

The whole thing stunk to high heavens, in my humble opinion. It was absolutely rotten. Barry had less than 10 more career homers than Hank. And none of the teams in MLB picked up Bonds the following year...and they could have had him for a song.

Please know that I am not knocking you here, my friend.

Best Regards,

Eric
