Barry Bonds grew up around the baseball
diamond. As a boy, he played catch at Candlestick Park, then the home of
baseball’s San Francisco Giants. Barry’s father, Bobby Bonds, was a star with
the Giants. Willie Mays, a baseball Hall-of-Famer, is Barry’s godfather!
Today, Bonds is ranked among professional
baseball’s greatest stars. One of the top home-run hitters of all time, Bonds
is the only major leaguer to win the most valuable player (MVP) award seven
times. That’s the award given each year to the best player. No other player has
won the award more than three times.
GIFTED ATHLETE
Barry Lamar Bonds was born in 1964 in Riverside,
California. In high school, Bonds starred in football, basketball, and
baseball. But Bonds always liked baseball best. He went on to play college
baseball at Arizona State University.
BIG LEAGUE CAREER
Bonds began his big-league career in 1986 when he
joined the Pittsburgh Pirates. He quickly showed his all-around skills on the
baseball field. He could hit home runs. He could run fast and steal bases. He
played great defense at his position in left field.
SUCCESS WITH THE GIANTS
In 1993, Bonds left Pittsburgh and joined the
San Francisco Giants. His success grew even greater with the Giants. In 1996,
Bonds hit 42 home runs and stole 40 bases. That made him just the second player
in major league history (José Canseco was the first) to have at least 40 home
runs and 40 stolen bases in the same year! For his outstanding play, Bonds was
named the Player of the Decade for the 1990s by The Sporting News
magazine.
HOME RUNS!
In 2001, Bonds amazed fans with one of the greatest
hitting seasons in baseball history. He hit 73 home runs, the most any player
had ever hit in a single season.
Early in the 2004 season, Bonds slugged his
661st career home run. That hit put him in third place on the all-time home-run
list, one ahead of his godfather, Willie Mays! Bonds has a chance to break the
major league record of 755 home runs, which is held by Hank Aaron.
