In the 2004 season when he shattered his own single-season record by drawing 232 walks, Barry Bonds had more intentional walks than the American League leader had total walks. Bonds has 120 intentional walks while Eric Chavez led the AL with just 95 total walks.

Hey look who’s catching in that picture! I’m not a big fan of inter-league play, but in this case it made for an interesting picture.
