Had he made that play at 2nd and got Dave Justice out; there would have been no need to worry about Francisco Cabrera. Dave Justice is out at first and Terry Pendelton is at 3rd. Sid Bream is walked. Ron Gant lines out to Bonds and Pendelton scores. 2-1 Pirates, 2 outs. Berryhill is walked (ugh don't get me started on that AB). So, Bream on 2nd, Berryhill on 1st and up comes Brian Hunter. He pops out to 2nd and the Pirates win the game 2-1. So really, it's not Bonds fault. It's Jose Lind. He deserves the most blame for losing that game. I, of course, have trouble finding an MVP in that bunch. Bonds certainly wasn't. Perhaps Drabek would have been.
