Even though Barry Bonds has not gotten his Hall of the Fame induction, the MLB legend will go down as the most dominating player from the plate. During his playing days, Bonds was a monster for the pitchers.

It is a pity that the San Francisco legend never won the World Series. During 22 years of his baseball career, Barry Bonds ruled the game from the plate. With 14-time All-Star, 7-time league MVP, and many other individual honors, Bonds won everything in MLB as an individual. Apart from having an illustrious career, Bonds also enjoyed a glamorous life.

Notably, it is almost impossible to dethrone Barry Bonds from the top of the home run chart. Because it took 32 years for the Giants’ legend to break the most home run record of Henry Aaron. Only time will tell if any player even goes near to Bonds’ home run record (762).
