Booing Barry Bonds is great fun!

The staff of 98-7 The Peak enjoyed the company suite last night at Chase Field. It's been a long time since I've been to a Giants game either here or in SF, and let me tell you something, D-backs fans are a quiet bunch any and every game. They aren't like Mets fans, they aren't like Giants fans, they are just not like traditional baseball fans. They are quiet, they show up late to the games, and I just have always attributed it to the fact that we aren't experienced baseball fans here. We didn't always have an MLB team, so Arizonans are still learning how to be proper baseball fans. I don't even think we have a real heckler yet. But last night walking away from the ballpark, I did enjoy a saxophonist on the street, which was very "city" for Phoenix.

Last night, the usually-quiet D-backs fans became rather vocal when Barry Bonds stepped up to the mound. That was the best part of the game -- everybody booing. It was this huge boo you had to be able to hear all the way to Alice Cooperstown. It seemed to work too, as Bonds and his squeaky girly voice didn't get a hit. The D-backs won and fans celebrated quietly.
