Bonds just beat out Rickey Henderson for all-time walks...
Posted By: Gary B.
The intentional walk record has only been kept since 1955. I would however say it's a safe bet that even if it was kept since Ruth's day, Bonds would still have the record by a long shot. He has 71, and he's on pace to get WELL over 100, and the most walks Ruth ever had in a season was 170. I seriously doubt that even in that season he had over 100 of those walks be intentional ones, or anywhere close to that number. Admittedly, the record would have a bit more prestige if had been kept longer, but I think more than doubling the number of intentional walks any other player has had in a season (by the time Bonds is done this year)in a 50 year period, is still pretty darn impressive. The walk record he's on pace to demolish will be even more amazing. Before Bonds, no one ever hit more than 170, and he's on pace to go WELL over 200 this year.
