It was a very frightening day in Boston on Marathon Monday. I attended the Marathon because I had some friends that were running the race. I was on Boylston St. not far away from the finish line when the two bombs exploded at 2:50 pm, 10 seconds apart. When the first bomb exploded we heard the boom and saw the cloud of smoke, we also noticed debris flying around, people in the crowd were yelling, but most of us thought it was a pipeline that burst. But when the second bomb went off, everyone started scattering to the nearest buildings for safety. We later heard that the two bombs were planted in trash cans and the police were treating it as a criminal offense. The fear and terror in everyone's eyes and the noise of the explosions will never erase from my mind. In all the times I've been to Boston, I have never seen the city in lockdown and chaos. The Boston police, paramedics, firefighters, volunteers, and everyone else that responded did an amazing job at clearing the crowds and keeping us from further harm. The last I heard there were 3 deaths, including an 8 year old boy, and 148 injured. God Bless the training of everyone that was involved in the rescue!! and God Bless the victims and their families!!

Barry Bonds is not a choice here ? Barry Bonds (1986-present) Position: Leftfielder Greatest Moment: Home run No. 71, breaking Mark McGwire's single season record. Why he's the greatest: Bonds has already passed his godfather Mays on the all-time home run leader list. Bonds is approaching 700 homers and the totals that Ruth and Aaron posted. Doping controversy aside, Bonds is certain to be a first-ballot Hall of Famer. He's won six NL MVP awards. Despite his awesome career home run total, he's only led the NL in homers twice. In 2002, he led the league in hitting with an average of .370. The only thing missing for Bonds is a World Series championship ring. He did have his chance as the San Francisco Giants made it to the Series in 2002; however, they lost to the Anaheim Angels in seven games. Even without the all-time home run record, Bonds was an easy choice for the top spot on this list. Love him or hate him, you have to admit he's the game's most electrifying player and feared hitter. So Ted Williams comes in as the second choice... Ted Williams (1939-1960) Position: Leftfielder Greatest Moment: Hitting home run No. 500 against the Cleveland Indians on June 17, 1960. Why he's one of the greatest: Many consider Williams the greatest hitter in the modern era. He was a two-time winner of the Triple Crown and AL MVP. He batted .406 in 1941; that contributed to his lifetime batting average of .344. The 17-time All-Star won six batting championships. Williams wasn't just a good contact hitter; he had impressive power, blasting 521 career home runs. PLAY BALL ! / Great answers!!! I can tell you know your stuff when it comes to Baseball. |
