Took awhile to get those final 3 or so. But congrats.

Why didnt he hold it until he gets in Fenway to do it? Hank Aaron waited to break Babe Ruth Record at Atlanta. Bonds did it in San Fran not in L.A,,So why Manny want to do it in Baltimore?

I rather see CAL Break 2131 in Yankee Stadium than in Baltimore. So he can make the Same Speech Lou Gehrig did at that same place.Lou Gehrig broke 2130 at Yankee Stadium. So why not Cal do it at the same place as Lou did?

Ripken didn't have a choice where he played his 2131 game in a row.

Why would you rather have seen Cal break the record in NY? Cal was the fan's player. Its only fitting that the record ended on a home game. That ceremony in the 5th inning of that game is probably the coolest thing ive ever witnessed. A 22 minute ovation?

Im sure Manny doesnt want to leave Boston now with that 22 minute ovation he got.

Maybe because he didn't want to hit it @ Fenway?

I read in this morning's Boston Globe that he specifically did not want to hit it @ Fenway, b/c of the noise factor that goes with it.

Nope.. Manny is gonna become an Oriole someday.He likes it in Camden Yards than at Fenway. Why you think Kevin Millar became an Oriole?

Because no one else wanted him. Why do you think the Red Sox let Millar go so easy?

Because Orioles Park is like a second home to the Red Sox(like fenway Park), they outnumbered the Orioles fans again today, like 7 to 3.
