Most of this article is good, but there are a few sections that need citations near the end. In particular, the "Records held" section has been tagged since March 2017. Steelkamp (talk) 09:17, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Under "====1995 season====", it reads "In 1994, he appeared in a small role as himself in the television film Jane's House, starring James Woods and Anne Archer.[1][2]". That has absolutely nothing to do with Barry Bonds' 1995 season.

Can we please add this to a new section titled "===Filmography===" and list every appearance Bonds has made in movies and on television? His appearances are listed on IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0482787/ 173.196.222.8 (talk) 20:09, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done for now: WP:IMDB is not a reliable source. Edward-Woodrow :) [talk] 21:55, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Change: Bonds was never well-liked by reporters or fans while in Pittsburgh, despite winning two MVP awards To: Bonds was never well-liked by reporters or fans while in Pittsburgh, despite winning two MVP awards, because of his consistently negative interactions with them. Reporters and fans alike have complained about his negative attitude towards them, often denying autographs or ignoring them. Jakeschock (talk) 00:18, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Outdated information in records section

[edit]

Under the "records shared" heading, the article incorrectly states that Bonds shares the record for home runs in a single postseason with 8. That record was broken by Randy Arozarena in 2020. 68.144.225.97 (talk) 06:33, 16 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Under the section "==Early life==", the opening sentence reads "Bonds was born in Riverside, California, to Patricia (née Howard) and former major leaguer Bobby Bonds, and grew up in San Carlos and attended Junípero Serra High School in San Mateo, where he excelled in baseball, basketball, and football." Can you please add "Barry Lamar" to open the sentence? It should read "Barry Lamar Bonds was born in Riverside, California, to Patricia (née Howard) and former major leaguer Bobby Bonds, and grew up in San Carlos and attended Junípero Serra High School in San Mateo, where he excelled in baseball, basketball, and football." 2603:8000:8500:38F2:C5C1:BEEE:B0C9:A94 (talk) 21:58, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Need to add Shohei Othani to this list on the Barry Bonds page! Also change the number to 6 players, not 5.

“He is also one of only five baseball players all-time to be in the 40–40 club (1996), which means he hit 40 home runs (42) and stole 40 bases (40) in the same season; the other members are José Canseco, Alex Rodriguez, Alfonso Soriano, and Ronald Acuña Jr.[237]
