Talk:Bobby Bonds

From BR Bullpen

I KNEW BOBBY WHEN HE WAS 10 YEARS OLD AND PLAYED IN LYONS LITTLE lEAGUE IN RIVERSIDE CALIFORNIA. MY FATHER WAS FIRST A MANAGER AND THEN PRESIDENT OF THE LEAGUE. HE PLAYED FOR THE HUNTER DOUGLAS HUNTERS. HE HIT A HOME RUN ALMOST EVERY TIME HE CAME TO BAT. I THINK EVERY PLAYER AND THEIR PARENTS LOVED TO WATCH BOBBY WHEN HE WAS ON THE FIELD. I HAVE NEVER FORGOTTEN HIM AND I AM THRILLED THAT HIS SON BARRY HAS FOLLOWED IN HIS FATHERS FOOTSTEPS. I AM SADDENED TO HEAR THAT HE HAS DIED.
