At the age of 34 in the year 1997, after 12 years in MLB,
Barry Bonds had 374 Home Runs.
That's an average of 31.1 Homers a year.

In the year 1998, Mark McGwire & Sammy Sosa both broke Roger Maris' single season Home Run record with McGwire hitting 70 & Sosa hitting 66, and more importantly stole all the headlines and everyone's attention. Bonds had 37 homers that year.


Bonds then hit 329 homers in the next 7 years (seasons 1998 to 2004).
That's an average of 47 homers after the age of 35!



What a joke.

I hadn't realized he hit almost half of his Homers after he was 35, the age when a lot of players start to breakdown and lose a little.


In those years after 1998 (The McGwire & Sosa Home Run year),

Bonds cleat size went from a 10.5 to a 13
Bonds Jersey size from a 42 to a 52
and Bonds hat size from a 7 and one eigth, to a 7 and five eighths, even though he shaves his head bald now.
I know the guy has a huge ego and his head swelling could be due to that.

Who's head and feet grow that much after age 35?

People who take HGH.

I can only hope he got his hands on some of the stuff that's been killing all the wrestlers from the 80s.

Arod will break the record in 6 years anyway.

I am over 35 and my shirt size has increased. I also have noticed that hair grows on my ears.
