On Sunday, former Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Eric Gagne reflected on an epic showdown with MLB legend Barry Bonds. The incident in question took place when Gagne and the Dodgers took on Barry Bonds and the San Francisco Giants during the 2004 season.

In a clip uploaded to the "Foul Territory" page on X (formerly Twitter) dated December 15, the 2003 NL Cy Young award winner talked about how he had a prior agreement with Bonds. Per Gagne, if the two faced off in the last inning of the game and it was a situation where the tying run was not a home run away, Gagne would throw just one off-speed pitch and the rest would be fastballs.
