The Week That Was: Milestone Maker

New rule: If you’re struggling to reach a milestone, invite me to your next game. Barry Bonds couldn’t manage to hit #714 to tie Babe Ruth’s mark for 40 at-bats, until my trip to the Bay Area last May put me in Oakland to play the role of Bondsian talisman. He hit one within a half hour of our being in the same park. This weekend I went back to work and aided the recently homerless Alex Rodriguez climb into the 500 Club — he waited 29 at-bats for me to cheer him on in person. The lesson here is I am, apparently, a human rabbit’s foot…and I can be bought. On the cheap, too.
