Barry Bonds soaks up the love in return to S.F., but puts Marlins first

Barry Bonds arrived at AT&T Park on Friday and went right to the batting cage. The visitors’ batting cage. Then he went to the dugout, sat down and answered questions from a swarm of reporters. The visitors’ dugout. Then it was off to the clubhouse.
Oh, the AT&T Park clubhouse. The stories it could tell about Barry Bonds. Well, not this one. He was across the stadium. You know, with the visitors.

Bonds has done a lot of things at AT&T Park in his life — including hitting 160 homers; 35 of which splashed into McCovey Cove — but he’d never done any of this. He was, for the first time, wearing the opposing team’s uniform.

great interview. Bonds is a very intelligent man and he's turned into a great ambassador for the game

How many fukking threads are we going to have about the debate do steroids help a HITTER?

YES THEY DO!!!!

1. Gives you additional strength.

2. Gives you superior timing... because of this strength.

3. Gives you superior confidence.

Take the roids away.... fukking guy couldn't hit 50 home runs in a season.

All these motha fukkers were on roids.... Bonds, Palmeiro, Mcgwire, Sosa, Canseco, Bagwell, Rodriguez, Clemens, Kevin Brown, Broxton, Eric Gagne. I could go on fukking forever. Half the entire league was on the sh#$.

so how was Bonds cheating when most of the pitchers he was facing were on the juice?

Because ENHANCERS are ILLEGAL PERIOD.

Dumb question.

[ace7550]

Best hitter ever

good to see him back in game

roids or no roids he's the greatest hitter of all time

[jjgold]

He will be a top manager in MLB down the road

I hope he takes Yanks job or SF

[tony_come]

Overrated

Never won the World Series

[jjgold]

Let's get him in pinstripes next year this guy knows the game better than most players or managers

It’s been a season to forget for the San Francisco Giants as they sit in the cellar of the National League West.

Things took another turn south Saturday, even on a day when they were inducting Barry Bonds into their “Wall of Fame.” Bonds’ plaque had a missing word or two, reading that he “led NL in batting (.370) in 2002 (.362).”

The plaque should’ve read: “led NL in batting (.370) in 2002 and 2004 (.362).”

[jjgold]

Bonds should be coaching San Francisco within a couple years

Woulda, Shoulda, Coulda

Barry Bonds great human "bean".

[hostile takeover]

Great hitter, yes. No friggin doubt, great hitter.

But why do people think he'll be a great manager?

He was not a team player. Did not get along with the press for a long time. Got into confrontations in the dugout with teammates.

[Mr KLC]

If Barry Bonds came back into baseball, and then proceeded to get out 2000 times in a row before retiring again, his career OPS would still be 10 points higher than Sammy Sosa’s.

Random af, did you bump into him today ?

I agree. Put him in the hall already or get rid of the hall all together. Becoming a big fugging joke anyways. Still don't have Pete Rose in it which is blasphemy.

pete rose is a p.o.s. Only people that love that guy are people that don't know him. There is a reason he had to go out of state to find a bookie. There is a reason that none of his family didn't come to his wedding. Plus there are other shit that can't be said.

[chico2663]

barry bonds even though not a nice guy. he was a great hitter.
