Home Run King, now Ceremonial Pitcher

Before a packed AT&T Park on Tuesday, San Francisco Giants legend Barry Bonds threw out the ceremonial first pitch in the Giants' first NLCS home game versus the Phillies.

Bonds jumped out of the dugout, blew many kisses to his adoring fans, tipped his Giants hat and waved to all in the ballpark that saw his many home run records established.

Earlier this week, Bonds was reported saying that he wanted his Giants to "beat the Phillies asses!" And he was more than rewarded for his enthusiasm with a loud and sustained ovation with the fans chanting "Barry! Barry! Barry!" over and over again just like they did many times several years ago.

In the game and on the mound, Giants pitcher Matt Cain put together an impressive 2-hit performance and the Giants won the third game of the NLCS 3-0. Giants now lead the best of seven series 2-1.

In 2002, Barry Bonds lead his Giants into the World Series against the Anaheim Angels and lost 4-3; his only World Series appearance.

Barry Bonds is scheduled to go to trial in March 2011 on charges that he lied to the U.S. government in its investigation of steroids in major league baseball.
