San Francisco Giants WiretapBonds Had Titatanium Brace Implanted In Base Of Skull?According to Marlon Leftwich, Greg Anderson disclosed that, as a remedy, doctors implanted a small titanium brace at the base of Barry Bonds' skull to keep his abnormally large head upright in 2001. Leftwich attributes to Anderson a story about Bonds, angry over steroids causing his testicles to shrivel, taking matters into his own hands. Prior to a rendezvous with his then-mistress, Kimberly Bell, after Game Five of the Series, he shot a full dose of human growth hormone into his scrotum. Within the hour, as Bonds' penis swelled to the width of a Coke can, Bell had to drive a moaning, half-conscious Bonds to an emergency room. Doctors gingerly drained the fluid and applied dry ice to his groin, narrowly averting a catastrophic eruption of his organ. As Leftwich remembers it, Anderson said, "I tried to warn Barry not to shoot HGH into his junk, same way I warned him not to shoot 'the Clear' into his pecs."

Fashion designer Marc Ecko, who bought the ball in an online auction, set up a Web site for fans to vote on the ball's fate, and the decision to brand it won out over the other options, sending it to the museum unblemished or launching it into space. "We're going to be working with the folks at the Hall of Fame," Ecko said on NBC's "Today" show. San Francisco Giants Read the Full Story Discuss Send Feedback Buy Tickets Giants Sep 2007 Archive
