exactly. My son and I were at Busch Stadium the day that McGwire hit number 61 in 1998. We flew to St. Louis and back the same day to watch that game. That is the loudest roar I've ever been a part of at a sporting event. If the Cubs could have gotten one more run in the top of the 9th, he would have gotten one more AB. I think he broke the record the next night. but we know now that record is tainted as well....actually, it's not a record any more because of Bonds, but with either Bonds or McGwire they were rhoided up.
It seemed like McGwire and the Maris family had a very nice rapport going, I would love to know how they feel now, they went through hell trying to get the asterick removed from Roger's name, then have this all happen, they probably want an asterick by Bonds and/or McGwire.
