How many Home runs has Barry Bonds hit?

ken griffey jr. , although he's almost completely fell off the radar since leaving the mariners early this decade, he has a long wrap around swing like Ted williams, in detail instead of your starting swinging motion having the nubb(bottom of bat) go towards pitcher and snapping the barrel around halfway or so through your motion, they point the nubb towards them, and not snapping the barrel

Don't you think that it's strange that the New York Yankees,?

Wow, that's really hard to say. Williams used to say that among Major Leaguers in the 90's, Robin Ventura had the best pure swing. As far as current, I don't know how close it was to Teddy Ballgame's, but for me, Ken Griffey Jr, has that classic, smooth, slightly upper-cut swing that Williams always loved. I love watching Jr. hit. He generates so much power, and makes it look effortless.

Will the Red Sox/Mariners game be rained/snowed out?

Actually if you look at the swings, Barry Bonds, has a swing that s almost identical to Ted Williams. The both are left handed and when they load up, start the swing, they both drop their hands a little bit so they could get the ball in the air. The both were/are able to drive the ball to all fields, and both played against defenses that put on a huge shift. Williams swing was a little longer than Bonds but if you look at them you can see the similarities.
