SAN FRANCISCO — Barry Bonds so badly wanted to play one final season.
On the 10th anniversary of breaking baseball's all-time home run mark, Bonds told The Associated Press on Monday night he believes he would have reached 800 homers or come very close.
Bonds said it "stung" to walk away from a decorated 22-year career with little notice immediately after a record-setting 2007 season with the San Francisco Giants, when he topped Hank Aaron's mark.
Bonds said there were never discussions about him playing for the Giants in 2008.
