Barry Bonds tied Hank Aaron's National League's home run record, hitting his 733rd Friday night.
Bonds' three-run homer in the sixth inning off Milwaukee reliever Chris Spurling was his 25th of the season. The San Francisco Giants outfielder is 22 homers from Aaron's all-time record of 755.
With runners on first and third, the 42-year-old Bonds hit a 2-0 pitch that just cleared the wall in center field to give the Giants an 11-10 lead.
