Once writers have been active members of the BBWAA for 10 straight years (and have satisfied all other requirements), they are given a vote. This year, according to the BBWAA, there are approximately 650 voting-eligible members. 440 of those members cast ballots. Each voter can choose up to 10 players to include on their ballot. A player must be selected on 75 percent of all cast ballots to be inducted into Cooperstown (the location of the Baseball Hall of Fame).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Starting with this year’s vote, writers who have not actively covered the game for 10 years are no longer eligible to vote. The right to vote had previously been granted for life, even after a writer’s retirement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is one reason for Bonds’ gains this year: the great purge of old-school hardliners whose self-appointed duties were to wring their hands and uphold the integrity of the game.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/SportsCenter/status/684878739570843648\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Writer Steve Aschburner \u003ca href=\"http://thefederalist.com/2015/11/19/with-hall-of-fame-changes-baseball-gets-political/\" target=\"_blank\">studied recent ballots\u003c/a> and speculates that “fiddling with the selection process could open its doors to known or suspected cheaters, including two of the most polarizing figures in the game’s history: Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clemens, who faced accusations of steroid use in the latter part of his career, received 199 votes, just four more than Bonds, or 45.2 percent of the ballots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aschburner adds:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>The pattern is likely to gain traction, too, as more honorary members lose their votes each year and additional newer writers qualify. Understandably, even media people want to see their particular generation of stars validated, those players they watched and covered.

It needs baseball heroes on the stage for its annual induction ceremony, fresh plaques for its standing-room-only attendance all summer.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>In the Hall’s instructions, voters are asked to consider “integrity, character and sportsmanship” in addition to a player’s performance.

That's the Hall of Fame I want to exist.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Which brings us to the next reasons Bonds is gaining more votes: shifting popular sentiment and the simple passage of time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/14428464/why-barry-bonds-roger-clemens-appear-jerry-crasnick-hall-fame-ballot\" target=\"_blank\">ESPN’s Jerry Crasnick\u003c/a> — who cast votes for both Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens this year for the first time — writes that he will remember this vote “as the year I dismounted from my high horse, acknowledged reality and took the plunge on baseball's home run king and a seven-time Cy Young Award winner.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 570px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://a2.espncdn.com/combiner/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2015%2F1223%2Fr38636_864x1296_2-3.jpg&w=570\" alt=\"\" width=\"570\" height=\"855\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">ESPN's Jerry Crasnick's 2016 Hall of Fame ballot\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Last January, Crasnick conducted a “social media experiment” where he tweeted the question: \"Should Roger Clemens and Barry Bonds be in the Hall of Fame?\" He writes: “One hour, 1,200 responses and a barrage of ‘yes’ votes later, I felt like a guy piling sandbags against a tsunami in my efforts to rationalize my ‘no’ vote.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Crasnick adds:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“…it's delusional to think we, as baseball writers, can uphold some quaint notion of the Hall as a bastion of competitive purity while fans who trek to Cooperstown each summer just want to visit a museum and see the game's history on display with all its complicated messiness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I'm ready to declare a moratorium on hand-wringing and cast my ballot, with all its flaws and inconsistencies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>… I'm out of the business of moralizing or parsing distinctions based on real or perceived transgressions. In the case of Bonds and Clemens, I keep going back to the words of ESPN columnist Ian O'Connor, who explained his conflicted Hall of Fame thought process in a 2012 column. \"I'm willing to vote for the bad guys,\" he wrote. \"But only if they're really, really good.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Crasnick explains that the state of baseball in 2016 is simply different than it was even last year. Bonds was recently hired as the hitting coach for the Miami Marlins, Mark McGwire, another notable suspected doper, is the bench coach for the San Diego Padres, and Alex Rodriguez, yet another player with PED suspicions, “was the feel-good story of 2015.” (Note: in his last year of eligibility, McGwire, former Oakland A's first baseman, received 12.3 percent of the vote, well shy of 75 percent threshold.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For all my dilatory tactics, the passage of time has proved clarity is a mirage, and we just alternate between lighter and darker shades of gray,” Crasnick says. “Shoulder shrugs are the new clarity.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"The mere presence of a plaque in Cooperstown, with or without an asterisk or a designated \"steroid wing,\" can't change the public perception. Dodgers fans are free to regard Bonds as a cheater and a villain, and Giants fans are free to love him for eternity. As Jerry Seinfeld so famously observed, 'You're actually rooting for the clothes when you get right down to it.'\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Another popular argument being put forth this year, as more writers checked the box next to Bonds’ name for the first time, is that we will never know all the facts about alleged PED use.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.foxsports.com/mlb/story/barry-bonds-roger-clemens-hall-of-fame-ballot-ken-rosenthal-122715\" target=\"_blank\">Fox Sports’ bow-tie-wearing Ken Rosenthal\u003c/a>, who also voted for Bonds and Clemens for the first time this year, explains it this way:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“The core problem in judging players from the so-called Steroid Era is that we don't know who did what and to what extent, the effect that the substances had on players, whether some benefited more than others from the drugs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In reversing my position with Bonds and Clemens, I'm simply acknowledging that I no longer am comfortable performing the mental gymnastics necessary to submit a ballot without their names…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I no longer could justify snubbing two of the greatest players of this era.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>For another year, the majority of BBWAA voters disagree with Rosenthal's sentiment and Barry Bonds has once again been snubbed.

That's the Hall of Fame I want to exist.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Which brings us to the next reasons Bonds is gaining more votes: shifting popular sentiment and the simple passage of time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/14428464/why-barry-bonds-roger-clemens-appear-jerry-crasnick-hall-fame-ballot\" target=\"_blank\">ESPN’s Jerry Crasnick\u003c/a> — who cast votes for both Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens this year for the first time — writes that he will remember this vote “as the year I dismounted from my high horse, acknowledged reality and took the plunge on baseball's home run king and a seven-time Cy Young Award winner.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 570px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://a2.espncdn.com/combiner/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2015%2F1223%2Fr38636_864x1296_2-3.jpg&w=570\" alt=\"\" width=\"570\" height=\"855\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">ESPN's Jerry Crasnick's 2016 Hall of Fame ballot\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Last January, Crasnick conducted a “social media experiment” where he tweeted the question: \"Should Roger Clemens and Barry Bonds be in the Hall of Fame?\" He writes: “One hour, 1,200 responses and a barrage of ‘yes’ votes later, I felt like a guy piling sandbags against a tsunami in my efforts to rationalize my ‘no’ vote.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Crasnick adds:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“…it's delusional to think we, as baseball writers, can uphold some quaint notion of the Hall as a bastion of competitive purity while fans who trek to Cooperstown each summer just want to visit a museum and see the game's history on display with all its complicated messiness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I'm ready to declare a moratorium on hand-wringing and cast my ballot, with all its flaws and inconsistencies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>… I'm out of the business of moralizing or parsing distinctions based on real or perceived transgressions. In the case of Bonds and Clemens, I keep going back to the words of ESPN columnist Ian O'Connor, who explained his conflicted Hall of Fame thought process in a 2012 column. \"I'm willing to vote for the bad guys,\" he wrote. \"But only if they're really, really good.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Crasnick explains that the state of baseball in 2016 is simply different than it was even last year. Bonds was recently hired as the hitting coach for the Miami Marlins, Mark McGwire, another notable suspected doper, is the bench coach for the San Diego Padres, and Alex Rodriguez, yet another player with PED suspicions, “was the feel-good story of 2015.” (Note: in his last year of eligibility, McGwire, former Oakland A's first baseman, received 12.3 percent of the vote, well shy of 75 percent threshold.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For all my dilatory tactics, the passage of time has proved clarity is a mirage, and we just alternate between lighter and darker shades of gray,” Crasnick says. “Shoulder shrugs are the new clarity.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"The mere presence of a plaque in Cooperstown, with or without an asterisk or a designated \"steroid wing,\" can't change the public perception. Dodgers fans are free to regard Bonds as a cheater and a villain, and Giants fans are free to love him for eternity. As Jerry Seinfeld so famously observed, 'You're actually rooting for the clothes when you get right down to it.'\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Another popular argument being put forth this year, as more writers checked the box next to Bonds’ name for the first time, is that we will never know all the facts about alleged PED use.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.foxsports.com/mlb/story/barry-bonds-roger-clemens-hall-of-fame-ballot-ken-rosenthal-122715\" target=\"_blank\">Fox Sports’ bow-tie-wearing Ken Rosenthal\u003c/a>, who also voted for Bonds and Clemens for the first time this year, explains it this way:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“The core problem in judging players from the so-called Steroid Era is that we don't know who did what and to what extent, the effect that the substances had on players, whether some benefited more than others from the drugs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In reversing my position with Bonds and Clemens, I'm simply acknowledging that I no longer am comfortable performing the mental gymnastics necessary to submit a ballot without their names…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I no longer could justify snubbing two of the greatest players of this era.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>For another year, the majority of BBWAA voters disagree with Rosenthal's sentiment and Barry Bonds has once again been snubbed.

It should be noted, however, that Bonds' on-field transgressions are only part of the story in terms of his most-hated-man-in-baseball status. San Francisco Chronicle sportswriter Scott Ostler addressed that aspect last week in this \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/sports/ostler/article/Scary-Bonds-just-an-act-5321160.php\" target=\"_blank\">column\u003c/a>....\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>It was weird to watch Barry Bonds at his comeback news conference talk about his old alter ego, Scary Bonds. Barry explained that the condescending and contemptuous lout who ruled the Giants' clubhouse from his reclining leather throne was an act. He created that character in order to play baseball better....\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Barry wants us to believe he made himself Scary for two decades (he was a jerk in college, too) so he could hit more homers? That he allowed himself to sink so deeply into his character that he willingly carried that personality into his everyday life, inflicting it on teammates, family and \"friends\"?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If that's true, man, you talk about selling your soul.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>I have no doubt Scary Bonds was real.

It's just amazing what 73 home runs will do to a fan's moral compass. I remember talking to someone, a doctor, who said, \"I \u003cem>know\u003c/em> Barry, he wouldn't do that,\" referring to the slanderous notion the man was enjoying a little extra PED-enabled oomph. Yeah, I know him, too. He \u003cem>hits \u003c/em>like a real paragon of virtue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that's not the only reason I liked Bonds. The fact is, I'd met him personally, and the experience belied everything I'd ever read or heard about him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>My story\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This was back in the ’90s. How long ago was that? Well, the World Trade Center was still standing, Afghanistan was a country no one could locate on a map, and a great deal of money could be made in the stock market by investing in random ticker symbols. I mean, this was so long ago, Yahoo, where I worked, was the No. 1 Internet company, and when most people heard the word google, they thought you were imitating a baby. Yahoo's biggest competitor back then was something called Excite.com, now long defunct. Both companies fielded softball teams in a Silicon Valley league, and I was our squad’s first baseman. One day, arriving at the field for a big intra-company game, I ran smack into a mysteriously dense wall of spectators.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What’s going on?” I asked a teammate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Excite’s playing Barry and Bobby Bonds against us,” he said, nonsensically.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huh? I waded through the crowd to the diamond, and there indeed stood Barry and his father, Bobby, warming up alongside the Excite team. Awash in cognitive dissonance, I soon discovered Bonds had signed a promotional deal to make an appearance on Excite’s behalf. Bobby was just along for fun. Excite had also brought a photographer and a PR dude to chronicle the surefire shellacking they were going to administer to us Yahoos.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The upshot of the event, as it is permanently etched in my mind:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Barry hit a ball that almost tipped the top of my glove at first base, then kept rising to shoot out over the fence in right field.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>We won the game, despite the presence in the opposing lineup of one of the game’s great hitters.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Barry Bonds couldn’t have been more gracious, hospitable, friendly and relaxed.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Yep, Bonds treated our little softball game with respect. He proceeded to sign autographs, pose for pictures and chat with us for close to an hour. Sure he was being paid, but that shouldn’t have been enough to prevent him from acting like an ass; we were just a bunch of local fans, after all, swarming around him trying to get a little face time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I even shared a moment with Bonds alone. He came to bat one inning, and we intentionally walked him. (\u003ca href=\"http://www.baseball-reference.com/leaders/IBB_season.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Major League Baseball pitchers soon routinely imitated our strategy\u003c/a>.) I smiled at him, and he grinned back. Then I shook his hand, and he smiled wider. The 12-year-old fan in me went all oogly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonds' demeanor impressed everyone. And that night, one could argue, this sports superstar, a local boy who'd played high school ball in San Mateo, was a genuine part of the community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what can I say, Keith Olbermann? Isn’t the heart of the matter that we see some sports hero on TV or in interviews, or if we're lucky play against him in a meaningless softball game, and we think we have some insight into him? Or even “know” him? And in our childish identification, we choose to know him as a \u003cem>friend\u003c/em>?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I still like Bonds, and I was glad to see him back in the Giants' fold.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This essay was published in another form in 2010.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"The sports pundit rants against the Giants' recent embrace of Bonds, but one fan remembers the slugger fondly.","status":"publish","parent":0,"modified":1395183644,"stats":{"hasAudio":false,"hasVideo":true,"hasChartOrMap":false,"iframeSrcs":[],"hasGoogleForm":false,"hasGallery":false,"hasHearkenModule":false,"hasPolis":false,"paragraphCount":29,"wordCount":1288},"headData":{"title":"Despite Keith Olbermann, I Still Dig Barry Bonds | KQED","description":"The sports pundit rants against the Giants' recent embrace of Bonds, but one fan remembers the slugger fondly.","ogTitle":"","ogDescription":"","ogImgId":"","twTitle":"","twDescription":"","twImgId":""},"disqusIdentifier":"129733 http://ww2.kqed.org/news/?p=129733","disqusUrl":"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2014/03/18/i-once-met-barry-bonds-and-he-was-awesome/","disqusTitle":"Despite Keith Olbermann, I Still Dig Barry Bonds","customPermalink":"2014/03/18/barry-bonds-giants-coach/","path":"/news/129733/i-once-met-barry-bonds-and-he-was-awesome","audioTrackLength":null,"parsedContent":[{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003cp>By all accounts, Barry Bonds' short stint as a Giants spring training coach went well. \"I thought he had some good information that he shared with us,\" Buster Posey \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/giants/ci_25355921/barry-bonds-his-week-giants-and-quick-batting\">told the Bay Area News Group\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_122935\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 282px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-122935\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/01/112154407-640x429.jpg\" alt=\"Barry Bonds leaves the San Francisco Federal Building in April 2011 after his conviction for obstructing a grand jury investigation.

But, you may be wondering, now that the \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barry_Bonds_perjury_case\">legally relevant\u003c/a> portion of Bonds' career appears to be over, is it safe to fondly remember his glory years in polite company?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Well, maybe within a 20-mile radius of the Willie Mays statue at AT&T Park. Last week, for instance, \u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VckPhiyahf8\" target=\"_blank\">Keith Olbermann got all Keith-Olbermanny on Bonds\u003c/a>, and while he does not necessarily speak for the average fan, he probably does represent the average Bonds hater.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We begin tonight with the shame of the San Francisco Giants,\" Olbermann soft-pedaled in the segment below. He went on to call Bonds \"the man who hit more home runs and in all likelihood more PED-nullifed home runs in Major League Baseball history, scorned or dismissed or laughed at in every baseball town except San Francisco.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You cheated the game; you dishonored the game.

He ended with, \"I have advice for you: Get lost.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/VckPhiyahf8\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Personally, I don't feel qualified to condemn a man to a lifetime of anguish for cheating at baseball -- only God and TV news hosts can do that. It should be noted, however, that Bonds' on-field transgressions are only part of the story in terms of his most-hated-man-in-baseball status. San Francisco Chronicle sportswriter Scott Ostler addressed that aspect last week in this \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/sports/ostler/article/Scary-Bonds-just-an-act-5321160.php\" target=\"_blank\">column\u003c/a>....\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>It was weird to watch Barry Bonds at his comeback news conference talk about his old alter ego, Scary Bonds. Barry explained that the condescending and contemptuous lout who ruled the Giants' clubhouse from his reclining leather throne was an act. He created that character in order to play baseball better....\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Barry wants us to believe he made himself Scary for two decades (he was a jerk in college, too) so he could hit more homers? That he allowed himself to sink so deeply into his character that he willingly carried that personality into his everyday life, inflicting it on teammates, family and \"friends\"?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If that's true, man, you talk about selling your soul.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>I have no doubt Scary Bonds was real. One local sportswriter I met in my personal life basically described the slugger as one of the worst human beings he'd met in his entire life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_50227\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 300px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-50227\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/12/barry_bonds-300x179.jpg\" alt=\"artalog/Flickr\" width=\"300\" height=\"179\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">artalog/Flickr\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>But at this point, I'm going to risk condemnation by the Internet community, which comprises a decent portion of the human race, by saying that I remained a huge admirer of Bonds well after I was reasonably certain he had embarked on his better-hitting-through-chemistry approach. It's just amazing what 73 home runs will do to a fan's moral compass. I remember talking to someone, a doctor, who said, \"I \u003cem>know\u003c/em> Barry, he wouldn't do that,\" referring to the slanderous notion the man was enjoying a little extra PED-enabled oomph. Yeah, I know him, too. He \u003cem>hits \u003c/em>like a real paragon of virtue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that's not the only reason I liked Bonds. The fact is, I'd met him personally, and the experience belied everything I'd ever read or heard about him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>My story\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This was back in the ’90s. How long ago was that? Well, the World Trade Center was still standing, Afghanistan was a country no one could locate on a map, and a great deal of money could be made in the stock market by investing in random ticker symbols. I mean, this was so long ago, Yahoo, where I worked, was the No. 1 Internet company, and when most people heard the word google, they thought you were imitating a baby. Yahoo's biggest competitor back then was something called Excite.com, now long defunct. Both companies fielded softball teams in a Silicon Valley league, and I was our squad’s first baseman. One day, arriving at the field for a big intra-company game, I ran smack into a mysteriously dense wall of spectators.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What’s going on?” I asked a teammate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Excite’s playing Barry and Bobby Bonds against us,” he said, nonsensically.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huh? I waded through the crowd to the diamond, and there indeed stood Barry and his father, Bobby, warming up alongside the Excite team. Awash in cognitive dissonance, I soon discovered Bonds had signed a promotional deal to make an appearance on Excite’s behalf. Bobby was just along for fun. Excite had also brought a photographer and a PR dude to chronicle the surefire shellacking they were going to administer to us Yahoos.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The upshot of the event, as it is permanently etched in my mind:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Barry hit a ball that almost tipped the top of my glove at first base, then kept rising to shoot out over the fence in right field.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>We won the game, despite the presence in the opposing lineup of one of the game’s great hitters.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Barry Bonds couldn’t have been more gracious, hospitable, friendly and relaxed.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Yep, Bonds treated our little softball game with respect. He proceeded to sign autographs, pose for pictures and chat with us for close to an hour. Sure he was being paid, but that shouldn’t have been enough to prevent him from acting like an ass; we were just a bunch of local fans, after all, swarming around him trying to get a little face time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I even shared a moment with Bonds alone. He came to bat one inning, and we intentionally walked him. (\u003ca href=\"http://www.baseball-reference.com/leaders/IBB_season.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Major League Baseball pitchers soon routinely imitated our strategy\u003c/a>.) I smiled at him, and he grinned back. Then I shook his hand, and he smiled wider. The 12-year-old fan in me went all oogly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonds' demeanor impressed everyone. And that night, one could argue, this sports superstar, a local boy who'd played high school ball in San Mateo, was a genuine part of the community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what can I say, Keith Olbermann? Isn’t the heart of the matter that we see some sports hero on TV or in interviews, or if we're lucky play against him in a meaningless softball game, and we think we have some insight into him? Or even “know” him? And in our childish identification, we choose to know him as a \u003cem>friend\u003c/em>?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I still like Bonds, and I was glad to see him back in the Giants' fold.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This essay was published in another form in 2010.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/news/129733/i-once-met-barry-bonds-and-he-was-awesome","authors":["80"],"programs":["news_6944"],"categories":["news_10"],"tags":["news_87","news_27"],"featImg":"news_122935","label":"news_6944"},"news_122934":{"type":"posts","id":"news_122934","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"news","id":"122934","score":null,"sort":[1389213938000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"baseball-hall-of-fame-vote-how-much-will-barry-bonds-lose-by","title":"Baseball Hall of Fame Vote: Barry Bonds Shut Out Again","publishDate":1389213938,"format":"aside","headTitle":"News Fix | KQED News","labelTerm":{"term":6944,"site":"news"},"content":"\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_122935\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2014/01/08/baseball-hall-of-fame-vote-how-much-will-barry-bonds-lose-by/attachment/112154407/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-122935\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-122935\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/01/112154407-640x429.jpg\" alt=\"Barry Bonds leaves the San Francisco Federal Building in April 2011 after his conviction for obstructing a grand jury investigation into his alleged steroid use.

Last year, members of the Baseball Writers Association of America made it clear that despite all of Bonds' prodigious feats, including his record 762 home runs, they were very, very cool to the idea of awarding him the game's ultimate honor. The writers' message in Bonds' first year of Hall of Fame eligibility: We're not about to forgive your assumed use of performance-enhancing drugs. Bonds was named on just 36.2 percent of the ballots cast, far short of the 75 percent support needed for the Hall. Another high-profile presumed doper on that ballot, Red Sox/Blue Jays/Yankees/Astros pitcher Roger Clemens, suffered a similar fate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year's result made a lot of people curious about what would happen in this year's Hall of Fame voting. If Bonds got more votes this time around, maybe he'd be on the way to eventual election. Well, the writers have spoken, and the news for Bonds' prospects of future enshrinement aren't looking good. His support actually declined from last year, with 34.7 percent of voters (198 of 571 who cast ballots) supporting his admission to the Hall in Cooperstown, N.Y.

The Hall will make its announcement at 11 a.m. PST. Last year was Bonds' first year of eligibility for the honor. He needed 75 percent of votes cast by members of the Baseball Writers Association of America to get into the Hall. He got just shy of 37 percent in the 2013 voting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, the former San Francisco Giants and Pittsburgh Pirates superstar has the ultimate qualification for the Hall: He hit more home runs than anyone to play the game who is not named \u003ca href=\"http://www.baseball-reference.com/japan/player.cgi?id=oh----000sad\" target=\"_blank\">Sadaharu Oh\u003c/a>. When Bonds' career ended after the 2007 season, he had hit 762 home runs. And there was so much more to his game, too. Through much of his career he was near the top of any fan's list of the game's best players because he did everything well. It was hard to remember, watching his bulked-up late-career physique, the lean fleet outfielder he once had been — the \"\u003ca href=\"http://lehmansbaseball.wordpress.com/5-tools/\" target=\"_blank\">five-tool player\u003c/a>\" who hit for average, for power, ran, fielded and threw with the best in the game.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, that blown-up body was the visible sign of his coming downfall, because, though no one's proved it in court, the universal assumption is that Bonds only achieved his amazing power numbers the same way he became The Hulk — because he was doping. (Yes, Bonds \u003ca href=\"http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2011/04/barry-bonds-verdict-.html\" target=\"_blank\">has been convicted\u003c/a> — but for obstruction of justice in a trial that accused him of lying to a grand jury investigating the use of performance-enhancing drugs in baseball. Bonds was acquitted of several perjury counts in the trial.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Given that history, it's hard to believe Bonds will be elected this year either. We'll leave alone for now the issue how most of the baseball establishment, including the writers, looked the other way while Bonds was piling up his big stats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonds wasn't the only player with Hall of Fame credentials who failed to get in last year because of his association with the steroid era. \u003ca href=\"http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/c/clemero02.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Roger Clemens\u003c/a>, the right-handed starting pitcher who won 354 games for the Boston Red Sox, Toronto Blue Jays, New York Yankees and Houston Astros, has denied doping, and like Bonds he \u003ca href=\"http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/8068819/roger-clemens-found-not-guilty-all-six-counts-perjury-trial\" target=\"_blank\">was tried and acquitted on perjury charges\u003c/a>. And like Bonds, he got about half the votes he needed to enter the Hall in his first year of eligibility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland A's and St. Louis Cardinals slugger Mark McGwire, \u003ca href=\"http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=4816607\" target=\"_blank\">an admitted doper\u003c/a>, got 17 percent of votes last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among those never associated with doping but kept out of the Hall last year was Craig Biggio, one of the best hitters in the game during his career, who made the impossible-sounding transition from All-Star catcher to All-Star second baseman. If you go by some early signs — \u003ca href=\"http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/baseball/hall-fame-ballots-cast-daily-news-writers-picks-article-1.1569463\" target=\"_blank\">like the New York Daily News disclosure of its writers' votes\u003c/a> — he'll be elected this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Others believed to be likely electees: Greg Maddux, longtime starter for the Chicago Cubs and Atlanta Braves; Tom Glavine, another Braves starter; Frank Thomas, first baseman for the Chicago White Sox, A's and Blue Jays.

The Hall will make its announcement at 11 a.m. PST. Last year was Bonds' first year of eligibility for the honor. He needed 75 percent of votes cast by members of the Baseball Writers Association of America to get into the Hall. He got just shy of 37 percent in the 2013 voting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, the former San Francisco Giants and Pittsburgh Pirates superstar has the ultimate qualification for the Hall: He hit more home runs than anyone to play the game who is not named \u003ca href=\"http://www.baseball-reference.com/japan/player.cgi?id=oh----000sad\" target=\"_blank\">Sadaharu Oh\u003c/a>. When Bonds' career ended after the 2007 season, he had hit 762 home runs. And there was so much more to his game, too. Through much of his career he was near the top of any fan's list of the game's best players because he did everything well. It was hard to remember, watching his bulked-up late-career physique, the lean fleet outfielder he once had been — the \"\u003ca href=\"http://lehmansbaseball.wordpress.com/5-tools/\" target=\"_blank\">five-tool player\u003c/a>\" who hit for average, for power, ran, fielded and threw with the best in the game.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, that blown-up body was the visible sign of his coming downfall, because, though no one's proved it in court, the universal assumption is that Bonds only achieved his amazing power numbers the same way he became The Hulk — because he was doping. (Yes, Bonds \u003ca href=\"http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2011/04/barry-bonds-verdict-.html\" target=\"_blank\">has been convicted\u003c/a> — but for obstruction of justice in a trial that accused him of lying to a grand jury investigating the use of performance-enhancing drugs in baseball. Bonds was acquitted of several perjury counts in the trial.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Given that history, it's hard to believe Bonds will be elected this year either. We'll leave alone for now the issue how most of the baseball establishment, including the writers, looked the other way while Bonds was piling up his big stats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonds wasn't the only player with Hall of Fame credentials who failed to get in last year because of his association with the steroid era. \u003ca href=\"http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/c/clemero02.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Roger Clemens\u003c/a>, the right-handed starting pitcher who won 354 games for the Boston Red Sox, Toronto Blue Jays, New York Yankees and Houston Astros, has denied doping, and like Bonds he \u003ca href=\"http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/8068819/roger-clemens-found-not-guilty-all-six-counts-perjury-trial\" target=\"_blank\">was tried and acquitted on perjury charges\u003c/a>. And like Bonds, he got about half the votes he needed to enter the Hall in his first year of eligibility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland A's and St. Louis Cardinals slugger Mark McGwire, \u003ca href=\"http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=4816607\" target=\"_blank\">an admitted doper\u003c/a>, got 17 percent of votes last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among those never associated with doping but kept out of the Hall last year was Craig Biggio, one of the best hitters in the game during his career, who made the impossible-sounding transition from All-Star catcher to All-Star second baseman.
