Imagine living in a world where a prime Barry Bonds spurned the Giants for the opportunity to wear the iconic Yankees’ pinstripes.
According to the MLB legend, New York had a real chance to make that outlandish scenario a reality back in the ’90s.
Bonds shared the eyebrow-raising story during an appearance on ESPN’s KayRod simulcast during the Yankees’ matchup against the Red Sox on Sunday Night Baseball. Speaking with hosts Michael Kay and Alex Rodriguez and fellow guest Roger Clemens, the 14-time All-Star revealed he considered the Yankees, albeit for a brief moment after Kay asked if the deal was close to happening when Bonds was a free agent in 1992.
