Barry Bonds pleaded not guilty Friday to charges he lied to federal investigators about using performance-enhancing drugs.
The home run king's arraignment in U.S. District Court marked his first public appearance since a Nov. 15 indictment charging him with four counts of perjury and one of obstruction of justice.

Bonds will get booked, mug shot, fingerprinted. There’s a baseball card I’d like to have, Bond’s mugshot on the front, stats like his change in hat and shoe size on the back.
Too bad these are Federal and not state charges. If he wound up in state prison it could be San Quentin where they have a baseball team called the....Giants. He always said he wanted to finish his career as a Giant.
