The San Francisco Giants will build a statue of Barry Bonds outside Oracle Park. There are currently five statues outside Oracle Park, those of Hall of Famers Willie Mays, Willie McCovey, Juan Marichal, Gaylord Perry and Orlando Cepeda. The Giants retired Bonds\' No. 25 jersey in 2018.
Bonds played for San Francisco the last 15 of his 22 big league seasons, hitting 586 of his 762 homers while with the Giants from 1993 to 2007.
\"Barry is certainly deserving of a statue, and I would say should be next up,\" Giants president and CEO Larry Baer said during an appearance on San Francisco\'s 95.7 The Game. \"We don\'t have the exact location and the exact date and the exact timing. ... It\'s coming. All I can say is it\'s coming.\"
