Well, Hebner was a grave digger in the off -seasons early in his career, maybe HAL is establishing a metaphor for how Bonds and the other steroid freaks and their inflated numbers have buried the HOF selection process.
I do have a nicely personalized signed picture of Hebner in his glory days as a young Bucco, courtesy of my late cousin who dated him for awhile. (I would also guess that he could probably still wear the same baseball cap now - something double B would find impossible.)
