Bonds breaks Aaron's record.
Yesterday was the night where Barry Bonds broke Hank Aaron's home run record. The San Francisco Giants outfielder has hitted his 756th home run of his career, a new all-time record.
The record breaking home run was hitted against Mike Bacsik of the Washington Nationals. As soon as Bonds hitted the ball to deep center-right field he knew that this ball had enough to cross the fence. He went around the bases with his arms in the air and was welcomed to the home plate by his son Nikolai along with Willie Mays and his teammates.
