But then when I saw their reaction to the home run, I was glad it was the Nats on the field. The dugout watched stoically, and even when Bonds thanked the Nationals for their patience during the celebration, Nats players on the field barely reacted.
Look, Bonds is going to get his name in the record books. I don't believe in asterisks. But I'm proud that the reaction of the Nationals mirrored that of baseball fans across the country.
You can have all the numbers you want, but we know exactly how you got them.
