Bonds
• Summary: Barry Bonds hit career homer No. 747 to help the Giants come from behind against the Blue Jays for a 4-3 win.
• Bonds watch: The two-run shot leaves Bonds just eight home runs away from tying Hank Aaron's mark of 755.
• Quotable: "Whenever people count that big man out, he always responds. He felt good tonight. Take that for what it's worth, but I took it as he was going to do something special." -- Dave Roberts on Bonds
• Figure this: This was Bonds first career homer off Toronto starter Josh Towers, meaning the Giants slugger has gone deep vs. 440 different pitchers.
