APBarry Bonds celebrates with his Giants teammates after winning the game with a two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth. The slugger doesn't want anybody bringing up San Francisco's impressive winning streak. There will be no jinxing the good thing the Giants have going.Bonds hit a two-run walkoff homer with two outs in the ninth to lead the surging Giants to their season-best seventh straight victory, a 4-2 win over the Colorado Rockies on Friday night.Bonds connected for his 13th homer of the year and No. 671 of his career on a 3-2 pitch from Tim Harikkala, sending the ball into the left-field seats just over the glove of Matt Holliday. Friday's MLB Action American League · Red Sox 8, Mariners 4 · Yankees 7, Devil Rays 5 · White Sox 4, Angels 3 · Indians 1, Athletics 0 · Royals 2, Twins 1 · Orioles 7, Tigers 5 · Blue Jays 5, Rangers 4 National League · Reds 7, Expos 6 · Cardinals 2, Astros 1 (10) · Giants 4, Rockies 2 · Pirates 9, Cubs 5;Pirates 5, Cubs 4 (10) · Marlins 2, Mets 1 · Phillies 3, Braves 2 (10) · D'backs 6, Dodgers 3 · Padres 5, Brewers 3 The way the wind was blowing, the 39-year-old slugger didn't think the ball was headed out."I got it up high enough," said Bonds, who feels healthy again after back spasms sidelined him for five games last week. "I feel good. Better. Still old. When you're healthy, you can do a lot."His homer came after Shawn Chacon blew his second save in two nights when he allowed a two-run single to Marquis Grissom in the ninth that tied it.It was Bonds' 10th career walkoff homer and first since last Aug. 10 against Atlanta. He's homered three times in his last four games."They're fun," Bonds said of game-winning homers. He gave a pep talk to the team in the dugout before the game.Jim Brower (2-3) pitched the ninth for the win and the reigning NL West champions look like themselves again.
