He was ejected out of the 9th inning after arguing a strike call by Ron Kulpa. Then he didnt want to leave the dugout. Plus the Giants fans started throwing things on to the field.

He did in fact hit his 723rd home run.

Get control of your favorite player Dan. Please.

Bonds hits No. 723, gets ejected, in loss to Rockies

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -- Things had never turned this ugly in San Francisco's 7-year-old waterfront ballpark. Fan behavior this bad brought everybody back to the rowdiest of days at Candlestick Park.

Yorvit Torrealba hit a three-run homer against his former team and also scored a run on a balk, leading the Colorado Rockies past the San Francisco Giants 5-2 Friday night despite allowing Barry Bonds' 723rd career home run.

Bonds hit a solo shot to center in the seventh for his first home run since July 20 against San Diego, a span of 26 at-bats. He was batting in the ninth when he began arguing with plate umpire Ron Kulpa about a called second strike. Kulpa immediately ejected Bonds, who got in the umpire's face and began yelling.

Bonds returned to the dugout, sat down and crossed his arms as fans responded by throwing garbage, including beer bottles, onto the field from all directions. The Rockies left the field and retreated into their dugout to avoid being hit while fans chanted "Barry! Barry!"

Security came onto the field and so did a large cleanup crew, causing an 11-minute delay. Fans also threw things at the umpires as they were escorted off the field after the game.

Bonds, who sat out of games on Tuesday and Wednesday with swelling in his troublesome right knee before Thursday's off day, sent a 2-1 pitch from Jeff Francis (9-9) over the wall in center in the seventh for his 15th home run of the year to move within 32 of tying home run king Hank Aaron's record of 755.

The 42-year-old Bonds hit his first homer off Francis, who became the 429th different pitcher to surrender a home run to the seven-time NL MVP. Bonds also hit his 715th homer May 28 against Colorado to pass Babe Ruth and move into second place on the career list behind Aaron.

Also, the homer gave Bonds 1,377 extra-base hits to tie him with Stan Musial for second all-time behind Aaron's 1,477.

Someone should tell the umps that people dont pay to see them

my boy

i missed the game but did catch the highlights of this one. thats what you expect you argue with the umps.

That was never a strike, though. Honestly, the umps should take the word of Bonds as the word of truth. It's not like he's ever going to cheat anyone is it? It's just not in his nature.
