Bonds recalls fertility advice he gave to former teammate's wife

Barry Bonds is a man of many talents. One area of expertise? Giving his teammates advice about fertility.

The 52-year-old was recognized by the San Francisco Giants at AT&T Park with a Hall of Fame plaque Saturday afternoon. The celebration led to several appearances from past teammates, none more memorable than former starter Kirk Rueter's speech.

"I told him before I came out here that my wife and I were trying to have a baby and he told Karla (Rueter's wife) something on a plan ride somewhere, we were going on a trip, and it worked," Rueter said during his speech.

"My daughter just turned 17 a little bit ago so thanks for that, B."

So, what exactly did Bonds say to the Rueters that led to the fruit of their loins?

"You really wanna know that for real?" Bonds asked. "Don't bleep this cause it's real. I told Woody (Rueter) leave his wife alone for about two weeks so you could get some build up and then you go at night time, then you go in the morning, and then you got all day to recover so then you got that day and then you go the next day, the next morning you gotta recover though so you gotta stay away from her for like two weeks to get the build up so you get each day.

"Sooner or later, man, her walls can't break it down she gotta give up and that's what I told him and it worked... I was just joking though. I did it and it worked for me so I was like, 'go ahead you try it.''

Whatever works, man.
