It's safe to say the people of San Francisco are thrilled about having a day that celebrates the true home run king of Major League Baseball.
Yes, I'm one of those who grew up in the 90s and 2000s, and the so-called steroid era was a fun time for a kid who liked watching dingers.
Steroid debates aside, Bonds was more than just a great home run hitter. Many former players who played with him believe he's the greatest player ever to play the game, just ask Atlanta Braves legend Chipper Jones.

While it is a travesty that players connected to steroids are not in the National Baseball Hall of Fame, having your peers talk about how great you are is all the evidence Bonds ever needed.
