The performance won him his fourth MVP and Bonds would follow it up with MVP performances in each of the next three seasons while breaking his own walk record twice (198 in 2002 and then 232 in 2004, as a 40-year-old) and OPS record (1.381 in 2002 and then 1.422 in 2004).

Bonds then missed a bulk of the 2005 season with injury before coming back in 2006 to pass Babe Ruth in home runs (714) and then Hank Aaron (755) the following year.
