SAN FRANCISCO 4, MILWAUKEE 2; BONDS HITS 661
Barry Bonds passed Willie Mays Tuesday night with a massive shot into McCovey's Cove. Personally I think that Bonds' accomplishments have been somewhat anticlimactic, and that is a direct result of his involvement with the BALCO investigation and alleged steroid use. Whether or not there will ever be concrete evidence of Bonds using performance enhancing drugs remains to be seen, but nevertheless his legacy will always be tarnished.
Chris Capuano turned in a decent start. 5 innings, 3 runs (all earned), 3 walks, 5 strikeouts and two homeruns allowed to former Brewer Marquis Grissom. Ben Ford allowed one run in two innings and Luis Vizcaino threw a scoreless frame in the 8th.
The Brewers had seven hits and two walks but only managed two runs. They had no extra-base hits which can most likely be blamed for their lack of production. Keith Ginter got the start at thirdbase and went 1-4. Lyle Overbay and Ben Grieve each went 0-4 and both of them are off to a slow start, hitting .195 and .200 respectively.
The Brewers will try to get back to .500 and avoid a series sweep Wednesday afternoon.
