PULL DURHAM

You'd think that if you were standing on base with Barry Bonds batting that you'd know better than go take too large a lead. Apparently, Ray Durham brain-farted or simply forgot, because with one out Durham, standing on second base and with Bonds batting, got picked off on a throw from the catcher. Not very smart.

Bonds walked (career No. 2,528--Bonds has more walks than most players who've ever played the game have had at-bats, much less hits) and then two batters later, Pedro Feliz hit a three-run blast near the left field foul pole. Benji Molina followed with a home run into the left field bleachers to tie the score at 6 here in the fifth inning.

So, Bonds did bat this inning and two home runs were hit, but neither was No. 755.
