Yahoo! News - Bonds Joins Ruth, Aaron in 700 Club
Bonds connected in the third inning of San Francisco's' 4-1 victory over San Diego on Friday night, leading the Giants to their sixth straight win in the opener of their final nine-game homestand.

With a 392-foot solo shot to left-center, Bonds became the first new member of the 700 club in 31 years, joining Babe Ruth and Hank Aaron.

Quite an achievement, Mr. Bonds. A couple more years and you will own the record.
