1.815
Even by Barry Bonds absurd standards of the past few years, this season stands out. The number above is his OPS tally so far for this season. That's a combination of his ridiculous .463 batting average and 44 walks for an .704 on-base percentage plus his 1.111 slugging percentage. His .696 OBP/1.132 SLG = 1.828 OPS may well be the single greatest month ever compiled by a hitter. He accomplished this despite constant pressure on him from the Balco debacle and the fact that he was pressing for at least a few games while pursuing the number three mark in homers. Amazing.
