Sure we live in a new baseball world where OBP is even displayed during at bats on ESPN telecasts, but the game still has a long way to go. Today Barry Bonds just broke Rickey Hendersons's all-time record for career walks, which I had no idea was about to occur, until after the fact. No national countdown, no headlines on the local news, just a blurb seven stories down on the Yahoo Sports page. True, it's not very visually dramatic to see a batter draw a base on balls, jog to first, and then be saluted for his all-time record, but it's a lot more of an important stat then the stolen base record, that was focused on when the Rickey broke that record.
