Posted By: <b>John(z28jd)</b><p>Of course a Pirates fan would know,especially one that used to write for them(as i say patting myself on the back).<BR> A game vs the cubs that started before he was called up,was postponed due to darkness with the score tied and was to be made up at a later date.That date being after he got called up,and when the game resumed he got the hit and rbi. I honestly cant tell you what day it was but i remember them saying that during the replay of the game. Something like "barry bonds who wasnt even with the team when this game started....."<BR><BR>The winning pitcher of the game was Barry Jones,who also gets credit for the win before he was called up to the majors later that season
