Bonds to Play All 3 in Philly
Barry is scheduled to play all 3 games in Philly over the weekend, despite being hit in the head yesterday with a ball during batting practice:
"Barry's OK," Alou said as Bonds slept on a leather couch in the clubhouse. "He'll play all three games in Philadelphia. Now Monday night at home, I don't know about that. That's a tough day for everybody."
Barry is still sitting at 712, two back from Babe Ruth's 714. He didn't start in today's game in Milwaukee, but is available as a pinch hitter off the bench. I'll likely be at all three games this weekend and should get a good feel for how Philly reacts.

If he gets to 714 here, but not 715, there's no way he's sitting Monday.
