There's something fishy about this recent slump for Barry Bonds. 4 for 29!!! With NO homers!
George W. Bush is a notorius anti-steroids and anti-black baseball fan. He hates both. Could it be that Bush doesn't want to see the great Babe Ruth's record broken and has ordered opposing team managers to 'walk the black bastard.' Or maybe Bush unleashed some electromagnetic ray gun from the outfield to stop Bonds from hitting Nos. 714 and 715???
Bush is evil. He is probably behind this. If Baryy Bonds mysteriously perishes in a plane crash, we'll know for sure.

Struggling Bonds switches from cleanup to third spot By Chris Haft Mercury News
Hoping to stimulate Barry Bonds' production, Manager Felipe Alou elevated the left fielder from his habitual cleanup spot Saturday into the third position in the batting order for the first time in nearly three years.
''I want this to be a long-term thing,'' said Alou, who has used 32 lineups in 37 games.
The switch didn't immediately help Bonds, who went 0 for 3 with a strikeout, a line drive to deep left field, a four-pitch walk and a groundout. Bonds, who did not comment, has played five consecutive homer-less games since hitting No. 713 last Sunday at Philadelphia. He has four hits in his past 29 at-bats (.138) and is 1 for 16 (.063) in five games on the Giants' homestand.
Alou said that opponents have prevented Bonds from filling a typical No. 4 batter's role. ''We don't have a cleanup hitter, because they're not pitching to him,'' Alou said. Bonds has drawn walks in his past eight games, including four intentional passes.
Alou decided to move Bonds before arriving at AT&T Park
