25 Retired

The Giants retired Barry Bonds’s number Saturday night:

Barry Bonds has gotten his No. 25 jersey retired by the San Francisco Giants, 11 years after he broke Hank Aaron‘s home run record in his 22nd and final major league season.

The Giants held a ceremony at AT&T Park on Saturday night before a game against his other team, the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Bonds became the 10th Giants player in franchise history to have his number retired. He finished with 762 career home runs.

The Giants waited a good, long time to retire this number. I suspect when Buster Posey retires, he’ll have his number retired in a couple of years.
