Thursday's midafternoon workout drew dozens of reporters, photographers and camera operators. They documented Bonds' every move, from his dancelike stretching to his three-quarter-speed tours around the bases, to his rounds in the batting cage against Correia, whose first four pitches to Bonds were balls, prompting jokes among the reporters about an intentional walk.
Correia smiled when he came off the mound after giving up a long fly that landed in the right-field bleachers. "I probably won't get a chance to face him in a game," he said. "So if I'm going to give one up to him, I got to do it now."
