- Barry had a lot to live up to when he
- joined the major leagues. A lot of
- people knew him only as "Bobby Bonds'
- son." His dad combined power and
- speed by hitting 30 home runs and
- stealing 30 bases in a single season
- -- five times! But in 1990, Barry
- accomplished his own major league
- first. While leading the Pirates to the
- National League Eastern Division title,
- Barry became the first player in major
- league history to hit .300, drive in 100
- runs, score 100 runs, hit 30 homers,
- and steal 50 bases -- all in the same
- season. Since then, a lot of people
- know Bobby Bonds as "Barry BondsΓÇÖs
- dad."
