SAN FRANCISCO -- Because of his link as a Major League ballplayer to Barry Bonds, Fred Lewis felt drawn to AT&T Park this weekend.
So Lewis, who lives near Hattiesburg, Miss., paid his own way to fly here from New Orleans to take in the scene as the Giants retire Bonds' jersey No. 25 in pregame ceremonies Saturday.
• Remembering Bonds' 5 biggest Giants homers
Plenty of Giants alumni will be on hand to honor Bonds, such as Hall of Famers Willie Mays, Willie McCovey, Juan Marichal, Orlando Cepeda and Gaylord Perry.
