The Braves were the best team he could have got to try to get there. A team not really competing for anything.

I thought he’d hit two more for the season after his first bit ge hit two last night. Hope he can hit at least 2 more still.

3 games left, and he's been on a pretty good tear lately.
So, is he at game 151 or game 159?

Looks like he's played 156. So, at a minimum, he'd still have an asterisk.
Get back to me when someone not on the juice hits 61 in 154 games.

Bonds juiced and played in the steroid era with a ton of homers, but let's not forget he had 81 games at one of the worst parks for hitters, especially for lefties. No one hits into the cove often. Bonds did it almost weekly it seemed like.

2001-2004 Bonds is the GOAT. Imagine if he would have played in a hitter's park. He had could have approached 85-90 in Coors or Chase Field.

What's the importance of 154 games?

ETA: Nm. The Babe did it in 154. But considering the improved pitching, I consider the accomplishment at least equal.
