AP: Bonds gets cheered in Pittsburgh

How Nice.

“That goes to show you Pittsburgh people, they understand the game,” Bonds said. “They were always great to me when I was here. When I was here, we never got booed. We brought a lot of excitement and they appreciated that.”
“It was nice, it was great, I was happy,” Bonds said of the warm welcome. “After all the years you played here and you come back and get that kind of welcome, it’s nice.”

“He got a really nice hand, and I’m glad,” said Paul Maholm, “He deserved it. He’s had a great career and it all started here for him. It was a great thrill just pitching to him because I grew up watching him just like everybody else. It was kind of cool to get him out a couple of times.”

“I don’t know, could be,” Bonds said when asked if this might be his final stop in Pittsburgh. “I’ll wait and see.”
