Podcast appearances and mentions of Barry Bonds

In today's Buy or Sell, Bill answers if hockey or basketball comebacks are more impressive, if the Pacers will win Game 4, if as a pitcher he would rather face Shohei Ohtani or Barry Bonds, if Dak's comments are concerning, if losing a no-hitter because of injury is worse than giving up a hit, if he would eat four pounds of baked beans to help his team win and if he is superstitious.

Former Dodger closer Eric Gagne joined The Roast to talk about his memories of facing Barry Bonds, how Shohei Ohtani compares to Bonds, and the Giants that irritated him at the plate the most.

Matt Cassel explains the experience of an OTA a nd Bobby Bones asks about the CBA and players getting into shape. After watching the comeback win of Carlos Alcaraz in the French Open, Bobby asks Matt about the biggest comeback of his career. Bobby delivers his list of 'Greatest Lefties' of All Time' while wondering if Barry Bonds was better at baseball than Michael Jordan was at basketball. Matt tells Bobby about goal-line plays in the NFL and what makes them so difficult. 2x Super Bowl Champion and Chiefs OG Trey Smith talks about his offseason training and how being drafted in the 6th round has placed a chip on his shoulder. How did Trey sell himself to teams despite dealing with an injury? Trey shares what it's like being in the huddle with QB Patrick Mahomes. Round 2 of 'GOATS of the NFL' include the best from the Browns, Cowboys, Lions, and Packers. Would you pick Brett Favre or Aaron Rodgers? When it comes to the Raiders, Matt tells a story about playing golf with Marcus Allen. It's LT or Junior Seau for the Chargers, but Matt explains what made Seau so special.

A claim made earlier by Dan Zangrilli that Andrew McCutchen was the ‘best Pirates player of the generation.' Is it something we agree with? We think it really depends on where you split the lines of a generation. Barry Bonds would have a pretty healthy claim. Will Andrew McCutchen get his number retired by the Pirates? 93.7 The Fan Sports Director Jeff Hathhorn joined the show. Jeff witnessed Scottie Scheffler win the Memorial Tournament in Ohio this weekend – his third victory in the month. Is anybody close to his level right now? Chris asked Jeff if this is the most dominant run we've seen since Tiger Woods. Jeff isn't sure if he will pick Scheffler to win the US Open due to some other talented names in the field. Who would be Scheffler's biggest threat later this month?

Back on this day in 2006 Barry Bonds broke Babe Ruth's homerun record. The San Francisco Giants outfielder hit his 715-career homerun, breaking Ruth's previous MLB record.

We welcome to our microphones award-winning author, cultural critic and Washington University in St. Louis professor Gerald Early, whose new book "Play Harder: The Triumph of Black Baseball in America" is a sweeping chronicle of Black Americans' extraordinary influence on the game of baseball — from the sport's formative days in the wake of the Civil War, through the heyday of the Negro Leagues, to the modern era. A leading voice in the conversation about race, sports, and American identity, Early also served as an advisor to the National Baseball Hall of Fame's landmark new exhibit, Souls of the Game: Voices of Black Baseball. Together, the book and exhibit offer a timely and powerful retelling of baseball's past — one that acknowledges long-overlooked figures like Moses Fleetwood Walker, Rube Foster, and Cool Papa Bell, and reexamines well-known legends like Jackie Robinson, Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, and Barry Bonds through a deeper historical lens. We discuss how Play Harder arrives at a moment of renewed focus on the Negro Leagues, as Major League Baseball officially recognizes them as major leagues and integrates their stats into the game's official record.  Early explains why this recognition matters, how the Negro Leagues shaped Black identity and community, and what the story of Black baseball says about America itself. + + +   SUPPORT THE SHOW: Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable "Good Seats" Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/good-seats-still-avalable?ref_id=35106 BUY THE BOOK (AND SUPPORT THE SHOW!):  "Play Harder: The Triumph of Black Baseball in America": https://amzn.to/4dzBmRj   SPONSOR THANKS (AND SUPPORT THE SHOW!): Royal Retros (10% off promo code: SEATS): https://www.503-sports.com?aff=2 Old Fort Baseball Co.

The NBA playoffs may be unpredictable, but at least summer blockbusters deliver.   In this episode of They That Hope, Father Dave and Deacon Bob unpack the Cleveland Cavaliers' devastating playoff collapse (RIP hope), debate baseball scandals from Pete Rose to steroid-era legends, and preview the biggest summer movies hitting theaters. From Marvel's new Thunderbolts to the return of Mission: Impossible and a much-anticipated Fantastic Four reboot, they break down what's worth watching and what might just be movie theater popcorn filler.  Alongside the movie chatter and sports rants, Deacon Bob introduces an exciting revival of a powerful small group ministry: Discipleship Quads. This free resource fosters spiritual growth through intentional, weekly gatherings rooted in Scripture, catechesis, and deep personal sharing. With new momentum and even a Spanish-language version, the Quads model is helping people grow in faith and community across the country. (Check it out at dquads.com.)  The episode wraps with reflections on Pope Leo XIV's installation Mass, his moving words of humility, and the symbolic weight of receiving the Fisherman's Ring. As the Church welcomes a new pope, Father Dave and Deacon Bob consider what might lie ahead in his papacy—including the possibility of a historic first visit to Ukraine.   As always, expect humor, brotherhood, and a reminder that our hope isn't in playoffs or premieres—it's in Jesus.    Highlighted Sections  (00:00) Postseason Chaos and NBA Plot Twists  Deacon Bob and Father Dave kick off the episode with a spirited sports recap, reacting to the Cleveland Cavaliers' playoff collapse and the unexpected shape of the NBA postseason. They debate changing legacies, cheer for the Knicks, and comment on the Toronto Maple Leafs' latest heartbreak in hockey.  (05:23) Baseball Scandals and Hall of Fame Debates  From debates over Pete Rose to steroid-era sluggers like Barry Bonds and Sammy Sosa, the hosts unpack the evolving conversation around integrity in baseball and eligibility for Cooperstown.  (14:18) Speaking of Movies: Summer Blockbusters Begin  Summer movie season kicks off with Marvel's Thunderbolts, and Father Dave shares why this new team-up film hits just right. The duo also discuss upcoming blockbusters like Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning and the much-anticipated reboot of The Fantastic Four: First Steps, as well as kids' flicks like How to Train Your Dragon and Lilo & Stitch going live-action.   (23:11) A Ministry That's Multiplying: Discipleship Quads  Father Dave and Deacon Bob talk about Discipleship Quads—a free resource from Franciscan University that helps small groups grow in faith together. Recently refreshed with new materials and a Spanish-language version, this initiative is spreading globally and helping transform Catholic community life.   (26:30) A Pope Named Bob (Sort Of): Leo XIV's Installation  Pope Leo XIV's inauguration Mass moved the world—and the hosts—with moments of humility and reverence. They reflect on his powerful statement of servanthood and the symbolism of receiving the Fisherman's Ring, traditionally used to seal papal documents.  (32:10) Praying for Ukraine and Papal Diplomacy  As the pope meets with global leaders, including U.S. officials, Deacon Bob and Father Dave explore the possibility of his first papal trip being to Ukraine. They also reflect on early reports of peace talks and the potential impact of a papal presence in times of global tension and reconciliation.    Resources Mentioned  Discipleship Quads – dquads.com  Homily of Pope Leo XIV during the Mass of Inauguration of the Petrine Ministry – NCR Online.

Send us a textMike "Spanky" LaValliere pulls no punches as he takes us behind home plate for a candid look at baseball through a catcher's eyes. From his days with the Cardinals to becoming a Gold Glove winner and fan favorite with the Pittsburgh Pirates, LaValliere's journey reveals the hidden complexities of one of baseball's most demanding positions.With refreshing honesty, Spanky tackles the evolution of catching techniques, expressing serious concerns about today's one-knee approach: "I don't understand the catching that's going on right now... at the lower levels, if you're on a knee, you're not doing any service." His breakdown of what made him successful defensively offers invaluable insights for players and coaches alike.The conversation turns particularly fascinating when LaValliere pulls back the curtain on catcher-umpire relationships in the pre-analytics era. His stories of umpires expanding the strike zone for mouthy batters and the importance of game management over rigid strike zones highlight just how dramatically baseball has changed. When asked about his relationship with umpires, LaValliere's insider perspective is priceless: "If one of the hitters was a little mouthy, you get a little tap... move a little further outside."Perhaps most compelling are LaValliere's raw, emotional reflections on the Pirates' magical 1990-92 division title runs, culminating in the heartbreaking 1992 NLCS loss featuring Sid Bream's infamous slide. Even decades later, Spanky maintains: "I still believe that I got that back leg before," and reveals he couldn't watch the replay for fifteen years afterward. His stories about teammates like Barry Bonds ("the best player I ever saw, bar none") and Bob Walk offer delightful glimpses into clubhouse dynamics from a golden era of Pirates baseball.Whether you're a catching enthusiast, Pirates fan, or simply love authentic baseball stories from someone who lived them, LaValliere's blend of technical knowledge, humor, and heartfelt reflection makes this episode essential listening.

Steak, Rusty and Mike come back and discuss what they would consider the top four Mount Rushmore plays of Atlanta sports noting Hank Aaron's home run, Michael Vick's walk off TD against the Vikings and Sid Bream's slide to beat Barry Bonds' throw at home plate as plays which could be considered. They then take calls from listeners to allow them to share their thoughts on the topic.

Barry Bonds. Seven-time MVP. All-time home run king. One of the most feared hitters to ever step into a batter's box. So why isn't he in the Hall of Fame? In this episode of Kenny The Sports Guy Podcast, we dive deep into the complicated legacy of Barry Bonds. From his early days in Pittsburgh to his legendary (and controversial) run with the San Francisco Giants, Bonds' story is one of dominance, scandal, and debate.
