100% Hank Aaron is my Home Run king. Bonds was a cheater.

Trivia question:Who are the only two pitchers to surrender a home run to both Hank Aaron and Barry Bonds?

Frank Tanana and Rick Reuschel

Dude, that is an AWESOME trivia question!

I was thinking Nolan Ryan and Gaylord Perry. An embarrassing 0/2.

Good guesses though.Aaron took Ryan deep twice but Bonds managed just 4 singles and a walk in 15 PA’s.Perry retired before Bonds’ debut.

Still the all time leader imo. Bonds was amazing but with steroids the * will always be by his name. Hammerin Hank should be remembered forever

And yet Atlanta claims him. Crazy

Ill allow 25% to the Brewers if they allow 25% of William Contreras.

I like the way you bargain

The franchise claims him, not the city. The Milwaukee Braves did not become the Brewers.
