As the MLB works to bring the stolen base back into the game, let's remember one of the great power hitters who combined the hits with the speed.  Bobby Bonds was the first player have two season with 30 home runs and 30 stolen bases, setting the record of five thirty-thirty seasons… a record that has never been beaten, although he now shares the five season ticket with his son Barry Bonds. By the end of his career - a career that saw him play for eight different teams before returning to the Giants as a coach in 1993. - he had gathered 461 stolen bases. We join Bonds on the field in 1972, a season that would end with 26 home runs and 44 stolen bases. Unsurprisingly, Bonds is batting third for the Giants.
