 SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - A baseball memorabilia collector is parting with the highlights of his Barry Bonds collection, saying the Giants star treated him poorly during a federal investigation into sales of Bonds collectibles.
"I can't stand the guy," said Jeff Kranz of Phoenix, who began collecting Bonds baseball cards in 1988. Kranz also said the value of his collection has decreased because of Bonds' alleged steroid use.
The collection is being auctioned online by Lelands, based in Seaford, N.Y. It includes the jersey Bonds wore when he hit his first home run in the Giants' current ballpark, a Pittsburgh Pirates uniform he wore in 1992 and a Bonds glove from 1987 backed up by a photo of him signing it.
