The San Francisco Giants retired the number of their greatest and most renowned player in franchise history on Saturday night, in what was an epic pregame ceremony.
Barry Bonds got his No. 25 jersey retired before Saturday’s game against the Pirates, in front of a packed house at AT&T Park, chock full of fans who came out to support the home run-hitting star.
There were speeches, emotions running wild and more during the ceremony, as everyone showed up to celebrate the 762 contributions Bonds made in the name of the team.
