Barry Bonds declined to elaborate Wednesday about death threats the San Francisco slugger says he is receiving.

“We’re not going anywhere with that,” Bonds said while walking off the field following Wednesday’s workout at Scottsdale Stadium.

The 42-year-old Bonds, 22 home runs from passing Hank Aaron’s career record of 755, told San Francisco’s KGO Radio on Tuesday that he has been receiving threats.

“There’s a lot of times I want to say I’m sorry to some of the fans. You’re only strong to a point and then you get nervous,” Bonds told KGO during a 90-minute interview. “I’m kind of standoffish and stuff and you can’t really explain that. … I’m mostly gun-shy of what can happen. Once this is all over and done, whether I get lucky enough to do it or not, I’ll be able to release just a little bit of the anxiety and fear of what can happen.

“You don’t want anything to happen to yourself. You don’t want anything to happen to your family.”

Cardinals 6, Marlins 3

At Jupiter, Fla., Adam Wainwright threw the final pitch of last season and one of the first at spring training this year.

Wainwright, who closed out the St. Louis Cardinals’ World Series win in October, opened his bid for a job in his team’s rebuilt rotation with three hitless innings Wednesday in a 6-3 victory over the Florida Marlins.

Wainwright earned the win on the first day of exhibition play between major league teams. He walked one and fell behind several other batters at Jupiter, Fla. But he still needed only 30 pitches – 15 strikes – to get through the first three innings, facing 10 batters.

“I did some things well to get some first-pitch outs, but I did a lot of things I’ll need to improve on,” he said. “All in all it was a good first time.”

Twins 4, Red Sox 4, 10 innings

At Fort Myers, Fla., Minnesota’s Matt Garza made a strong early impression toward winning a spot in his team’s rotation. Garza struck out David Ortiz on a slider in the first inning.

Rockies 12, White Sox 4

At Tucson, Ariz., White Sox closer Bobby Jenks threw nine pitches in Chicago’s opening spring training game before being taken out against Colorado because of tightness in his right shoulder.

Jenks, who led the White Sox with 41 saves last year and was an instrumental part of Chicago’s late season run to the 2005 World Series, was to be evaluated Thursday.

He faced only three batters in a 12-4 loss to Colorado before manager Ozzie Guillen took him out. Jenks doesn’t expect to miss any game action.

Tigers 5, Mets 4

At Port St. Lucie, Fla., New York Mets pitcher Oliver Perez hit a Sports Illustrated photographer on a leg with one of his warmup pitches. His control improved, his results did not. Perez walked only one batter in two innings, but gave up four runs and five hits as the Mets lost 5-4 to the Tigers.

Athletics

In Phoenix, the Oakland Athletics learned outfielder Bobby Kielty needs arthroscopic surgery on his left knee and will be sidelined for three-to-six weeks.

Kielty, who came to camp in the best shape of his career, injured the knee Sunday during a rundown drill – and just when he was ready to get through a healthy spring training, for a change.
