This is the way you have to watch Bonds. Full at bats. The agony pitchers go through to try to get balls by him in the zone, and him figuring out where the one good pitch he might get in the at bat is gonna be, is totally priceless. Just watching the balls leave the bat is like going straight to the most emotional scene in a movie with no context.

He hardly gets good pitches to hit but when he does you know it's going out of the ballpark. He's a power hitter who hardly strikes out (unheard of in today's game).

yeah he was on fucking real. Hands down one of the best hitters and absolutely the best home run hitter of all time. I don't give a fuk about steroids. Number one steroids legitimately saved baseball. Number to steroids made baseball the most interesting it ever was. number three I would say the vast majority of hitters were on steroids. it did not have anywhere near as much the effect as people think. People get far far far too much credit to steroids. bonds ability to look like he's hitting a fucking wiffle ball in life situations with hundred mile per hour fastball, to reach every pitch and have as good of an eyes he did, he's the best hitter of all time. He deserves to be in the Hall of Fame and there is no fucking asterisk. In the time of Henry Aaron people were fucking still doing steroids. Steroids are not new. They were doing amphetamines and all kinds of shit. If you put Barry bonds in the era that Hank Aaron was in, he would have hit fucking 900 home runs. Hank Aaron would have been a Hall of famer and Hank Aaron would have done amazing in modern baseball but he would not have had as good as bonds. babe Ruth in modern times would not have been as good as babe Ruth was back then. Ted Williams would not have hit 400 in modernbaseball. With shifts and all the shit that they have, pitchers for the most part are much better and have been for the last 20 years. Barry bonds is the best hitter that has ever picked up a bat. And the way baseball is treating him is fucking pathetic. even if he did do steroids he didn't do anything that almost everyone was doing. There are plenty of people in the fucking Hall of Fame that did steroids. He deserves to be in baseball for the rest of his life and he deserves to be in the Hall of Fame. Best hitter of all-time hands down no discussion.

If you search on KZbin, someone made a video about Bonds' 2004 season in which he had over a .600 on-base percentage. The premise of the video was to theorize what would have happened had Bonds gone up to the plate every time without a bat and pitchers still pitched him the same way. It analyzed every pitch he actually saw to determine percentages of balls and strikes and predicting how the remainder of at-bats where he put the ball in play would have ended. Obviously, plate appearances can only end 3 ways if you don't swing: A strike out, a walk, or a hit by pitch... the result of the video still had Bonds having over a .600 on-base percentage. It was just a fun exercise that in no way could be true, but it did represent how scared pitchers were to throw him too many strikes.

I could get Chicago Cubs games on the radio and listen to it With Harry Carey. I actually subscribed to "Baseball Weekly " published by USA Today. I had a newspaper delivered to my house (I just turned 47) and I would read about Barry and others. 97, the leagues were combined and I could watch everything. I bought EVERY ticket Barry played in Milwaukee. Originally in the third deck. Eventually 3rd row behind home plate. Best ever. Not close. 🤘 I am a very accomplished baseball player.

Imagine what his homerun total would be if intentional walks weren’t allowed lol

Some records are meant to be broken the all time walk record will never be broken he only hit in like 1/3 or more of his at bats

EASILY 900 plus home runs, hell he was getting to 800 home runs had an team signed him

@@potentially__9445Absolutely, I think He hit 4, 5, or 6 Homers after He Broke Hank Aaron Record. Even if Someone Signed him to Be A Designated Hitter the Next Year would have been Good. I Still Today don't know why the Giants didn't resign Him. He was Ready to Play Too, But Every Team was hating on him for Juicing. This Dude just was that Good, and His Dad Bobby Bonds hit over 400 Home Runs when he played with Willie Mays in San Francisco. He hardly went too many at bats before he launched one out of the Park. The Best to Ever Do it in My Opinion by Far, and those Pitchers were terrified to pitch to Him.

Bonds was great but losing the series was more emotional than winning three WS later.

At 23:29 it's amazing how quick Barry sees this ball will be low. Wow.

Are you kidding? It was a 3-0 count so of course he's gonna stand there and not swing. This is how 99% of 3-0 counts go. Are you new to baseball?
@haddtyl4 жыл бұрын
@@sadbravesfan You're exaggerating. Barry swings at about 15% not 1% of 3-0 counts. Given how this series was going, I'm sure he would take a shot at a hanging breaking ball or fast ball down the middle.
