San Francisco Giants slugger Barry Bonds will reportedly only have the 2006 season to catch Hank Aaron for the all-time home run record. USA Today reports Bonds will retire after the upcoming season. Bonds told the newspaper "the game (isn't) fun anymore and that he's "tired of all of the crap going on." Bonds also said after the season he wanted to "go home and be with my family. Maybe then everybody can just forget about me." The seven-time National League MVP enters the 2006 season with 708 home runs, just six shy of tying Babe Ruth for second place on baseball's all-time list and 47 shy of Aaron. However, Bonds told MLB.com later Sunday night that "if I can play [in 2007], I'm going to play; if I can't I won't. If my knee holds up, I'll keep on going." Bonds, who returns to the Giants for his 21st major league season, will earn $18 million for the upcoming year. He became the oldest winner of an MVP in 2004 when he topped the NL with a .362 batting average. He also belted 45 homers and drove in 101 runs despite just 373 official at-bats. That's because he broke his own major-league record by walking 232 times. His .812 slugging percentage was tops in the majors and his .609 on-base percentage and 120 intentional walks set single-season major league marks. He also scored 129 times, second most in the NL. Incredibly, that year, Bonds had more intentional free passes than any other major league team in 2004. However, most of the focus on Bonds in the last two years has been his alleged tie to steroids, even though the slugger has constantly denied ever knowingly using them. According to a published report by the San Francisco Chronicle in December of 2004, Bonds had told a federal grand jury he admitted to using a clear substance and cream provided to him from his trainer, but said he didn't know they were steroids. Bonds testified before the grand jury in December 2003, and according to the report said that the substances were provided by his personal strength trainer, Greg Anderson. According to the testimony obtained by the Chronicle, Bonds said he was told the substances were the nutritional supplement flaxseed oil and a rubbing balm for arthritis. A troublesome right knee that required three separate surgical procedures last year, limited the 41-year-old Bonds to just 14 games and 42 at-bats in 2005. After finally returning to the Giants' lineup in September, Bonds belted five homers and drove in 10 runs while batting .286 (12-fo-42). Bonds isn't sure how many games he'll be able to play this season. "I can't even tell how you may pain pills I am on or how many sleeping pills I'm taking," Bonds told USA Today. "I don't have a choice. I can't even run that much anymore. How can I run? I don't have any cartilage in that knee. I'm bone on bone. "But I can still hit. I can rake. I can hit a baseball." Earlier this year, Bonds pulled his name out of consideration for the upcoming World Baseball Classic, citing a concern of injury.
