500 & 755

Congratulations to A-Rod and Barry Bonds for 500 and 755 home runs today. Alex Rodriguez became the youngest player at 32 years old to hit 500 home runs and Barry Bonds tied Hank Aaron's 755 home run record that many believed would never be broken. Both sluggers have faced endless criticism by fans and the media, but their accomplishments should be appreciated and respected by all fans of the game. Kudos to both for the milestones they reached today. Hats off!
