Barry Bonds - American baseball left fielder who played 22 seasons in Major League Baseball (MLB). He was a member of the Pittsburgh Pirates from 1986 to 1992 and the San Francisco Giants from 1993 to 2007. Recognized as an all-around player and a prolific home run hitter

August 7 2007, at AT&T Park in San Francisco, Bonds hit a 435 foot home run, his 756th, off a pitch from Mike Bacsik of the Washington Nationals, breaking the all-time career home run record, formerly held by Hank Aaron (contradicting the date of the postmark)


Despite his accolades, Bonds led a controversial career, notably as a central figure in baseball's steroids scandal
