I've never been to an independent-league professional baseball game before, but I'd like to table this analogy:MLB : independent leagues :: NBA : Slamball
This is probably poorly-informed, juvenile sentiment, but it's too late, because I already typed it. That said, I don't know why Barry Bonds would be averse to the idea of playing in such a league. Unless, of course, his desire to play is about his ego more so than his love of the sport. But that can't be true. He cried one time while in a baseball uniform! There are pictures!
Independent leaguer Jay Gibbons attempts to relate to Bonds the joys of independent baseball in today's Dugout, after the jump.
