Barry Bonds has no legitimate records. He cheated. He’s a cheater.

I've never heard of Rickey Henderson so I picked "true," then I paused for a second to think about the math and quickly changed my answer haha

Even 130 is freaking preposterous, there's no way 300 could ever happen.

The ground rule double question probably could be worded better. I wasn't sure if you meant lands in the field of play and bounces over or hits the top of the fence and bounces over. I went with the incorrect one.
