SAN FRANCISCO -- The San Francisco Giants honored home run king Barry Bonds with the unveiling of a plaque bearing his likeness on the team's Wall of Fame during a pregame ceremony Saturday.
Nearly 1,000 fans lined up behind barricades not far from the players' entrance at AT&T Park to witness a 40-minute ceremony honoring Bonds. Several of Bonds' former teammates were on hand, as was Giants manager Bruce Bochy, along with Hall of Famers Willie McCovey and Willie Mays, who is Bonds' godfather.
With his mother, Pat, along with his three children seated on a stage nearby, Bonds joined former Giants owner Peter Magowan and current chief executive officer Larry Baer in the unveiling of the plaque, which features Bonds' face in the middle flanked by action shots of him on either side.
