SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A federal court on Monday released the names of jurors in the Barry Bonds trial, which ended last week with the homerun king being convicted of a single count of obstruction of justice.

Jurors deadlocked on three other counts that accused Bonds of lying to a grand jury when he denied ever being injected by anyone besides his doctor and knowingly taking steroids and human growth hormone.

Judge Susan Illston kept the jurors’ names secret until after the verdict. Several spoke to the media after the verdict was read Wednesday but most only gave their first names.

Only jury foreman Fred Jacob was fully identified last week.
