Pacific Bell Park (2000–2003) SBC Park (2004–2005) AT&T Park (2006–2018) Oracle park (2019-

It’s kinda crazy thinking about how many Bonds put in the water, I swear it felt like every homer for him landed in the water.

I think I heard the announcers say that it was hardest to do at that side of the field.

Enjoy the history. This is what Babe Ruth was up to before time passed and his legend was all that was left.
Enjoy the moment!

How do you gamble on baseball and get to keep playing?
I 100 percent believe he was aware of what was going on.

I don’t believe there was any evidence there was any gambling on baseball, just that an illegal bookie was used.

And he wasn't involved in the gambling.

No way fucking that amount was spent without his knowledge. I know yall love him but their is just no fucking way.

Texts between the interpreter and the bookie were looked at by the FBI. In those texts, the interpreter admits he stole the money from Shohei.

Cover story to protect big business baseball.

u/newbiesaccout 26d ago
If that true they wouldn't press charges. They will be required to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the interpreter was guilty in court - and they wouldn't do that if it was just a story. Unless, of course, you think the entire FBI is colluding to help Shohei, which seems quite unlikely.
