SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — It looks like it’s time to say bye bye
Barry.
Barry Bonds says on his Web site that the San Francisco Giants
are not going to bring him back for the 2008 season.
Bonds says that Giants owner Peter Magowan broke the bad news to
him yesterday.
Bonds has spent the past 15 seasons of his 22-year big league
career with the Giants. And this season he broke Hank Aaron’s
33-year-old record with his 756th home run.
Bonds holds the major league record for most home runs in a
season with 73. He’s also 13 time All Star and a 7-time National
League MVP.
This year the Giants remain mired in last place.
Bonds says he plans on continuing his career and that his quest
for a World Series ring continues.
