Timeline
The first was Bill Duggleby in 1898.
Bobby Lee Bonds Sr. (March 15, 1946 – August 23, 2003) was an American right fielder in Major League Baseball from 1968 to 1981.
He played for the San Francisco Giants, New York Yankees, California Angels, Chicago White Sox, Texas Rangers, Cleveland Indians, St. Louis Cardinals, and Chicago Cubs.
Noted for his combination of power hitting and speed, he was the first player to have more than two seasons of 30 home runs and 30 stolen bases, doing so a record five times (the record was matched only by his son Barry) and was the first to accomplish the feat in both major leagues.
He became the second player to hit 300 career home runs and steal 300 bases, joining Willie Mays.
Together with Barry, he is part of baseball's most renowned father-son combination, holding the record for combined home runs, RBIs and stolen bases.
Bonds signed with the Giants in 1964.
Playing in the Giants' minor league system, he was Most Valuable Player of the class-A Western Carolinas League.
He hit a grand slam in his third at bat in his first major league game, June 25, 1968, becoming just the second player, and the first in MLB's modern era, to hit a grand slam in his debut game.
Bonds was named to the 1968 Topps All-Star Rookie Team.
Bonds was remarkable during this era for his combination of power and speed but also for his propensity to strike out.
In his first full season in 1969, he set a major league record with 187 strikeouts, while also leading the NL in runs.
He broke his own strikeout record a year later with 189.
Bonds' 1970 total currently ranks tenth on the all-time single-season strikeout list.
In 1970, he stole a career-high 48 bases, the highest total by a Giant since Frankie Frisch in 1921.
Bonds was second in the NL in runs (134), third in triples (10) and stolen bases (48) and fourth in doubles (36) and total bases (334).
He was a three-time Gold Glove Award winner (1971, 1973–74), and a three-time All-Star (1971, 1973 and 1975, winning the All-Star MVP award in 1973).
In 1971, he finished fourth in the NL in runs batted in and second in runs, leading the Giants with a .288 average as they won the National League West title, earning their first postseason berth since the 1962 World Series.
A bruised rib cage limited his play in the 1971 NLCS, his only postseason appearance.
He was a late-inning replacement for rookie Dave Kingman in Game 1 and did not play in Game 2 before starting the final two games, batting 2-for-8 in the series.
That season, he placed fourth in the NL MVP award voting.
In 1972, Bonds scored 118 runs, which was second in the NL (the third straight season he was second in runs scored) and his 26 home runs was ninth in the circuit while his 44 stolen bases was 4th in the league.
A prolific leadoff hitter, he also set major league records for most times leading off a game with a home run in a career (35) and a season (11, in 1973), both records that have since been broken.
Born in Riverside, California, Bonds played varsity high school baseball at Riverside Polytechnic High School.
Bobby Bonds hit 39 home runs and had 43 stolen bases in 1973 — the highest level of home runs and stolen bases (39+ of each) until José Canseco of the Oakland Athletics in 1988.
In 1973, he placed third in the MVP voting after hitting a career-high 39 home runs, 11 of them to start a game and leading the league in runs a second time.
Bonds was named the NL Player of the Year by The Sporting News in 1973 and was also named an outfielder on TSN's American League All-Star Team in 1977.
After the 1974 season, the Giants traded Bonds to the New York Yankees for Bobby Murcer.
In 1975, Bonds broke Eddie Yost's career record of 28 leadoff home runs.
With the Angels needing right-handed power hitters, he was acquired from the Yankees for Mickey Rivers and Ed Figueroa on December 11, 1975.
In 1977, he tied the Angels club record for home runs in a season (37).
His 32 home runs was fourth in the AL and his 30 stolen bases were eighth in the league.
He was voted honorable mention on AP's ALl-MLB team.
That record lasted until 2004, when Adam Dunn broke it by striking out 195 times.
He also set a major league record with 189 strikeouts, which stood for 34 years until it was broken in 2004 by Adam Dunn.
Barry and Bobby had 1,094 combined home runs through 2007 — a record for a father-son combination.
