Pink bats help power Padres to win
Published 5/12/2008 by David Biderman at Major League Baseball News

Gonzalez was swinging a pink bat in the Padres' game against the Rockies. He, along with several of his teammates and various players from every Major League team, used and wore pink gear Sunday in honor of Mother's Day.
