Morning roundup: Bonds bonanza

-Barry Bonds finally did it. Check out the cover of the New York Post featuring the 'sultan of syringe.' Mickey Mantle and Ted Williams are in agreement on the issue. As he always seems to do, Mike Lupica says it best.
-Kudos to Hank Aaron for being a class act.
-A Mets fan caught number 756. Things got bloody in the fight for the ball.
-Mike Backsik of the Nationals gave up the historic blast. His father was once in the same situation.
-The Yankees continued the slugfest at the plate, and it carried onto the field. Joba Chamberlain was as good as advertised in his first major league appearance.
-The Red Sox looked bad in a 10-4 beatdown at the hands of the Anaheim Angels of Anaheim. Three months ago, Boston's lead over the Yankees was 14.5 games. Now it's down to five.
-The Boston Globe reports that Wily Mo Pena has cleared waivers.

-This is one of the many reasons why a moose should never pilot a vehicle.
-Jake Peavy hasn't surrendered a run in 19 innings.
-Brady Quinn is signed, sealed, and delivered to training camp in Cleveland.
-Longtime assistant Dino Gaudio will take over for the late Skip Prosser at Wake Forest.
