50 HR's / 50 SB's

How many players in baseball history have had seasons with over 50 HR's, and separately in a different season, 50 SB's?

I believe the answer is one (1) ... Brady Anderson. Anderson hit 50 home runs in 1996 and stole 53 bases in 1992. Who would've thunk?!

Oh whoops! Add Barry Bonds to the list ... who stole 52 bases in 1990 and hit 73 home runs in 2001.

Willie Mays may have done it as well.

Steve

nope, 50 and 40 was his best.

Mays hit 51 and 52 HRs in separate seasons, he LED THE LEAGUE in steals four times,
Leading the league in HRsand Steals is remarkable feat, not merely high numbers, but the BEST in relation to your peers,
Only Ty Cobb joins Mays in that truly elite group.

I believe when Canseco became the first 40/40 member, didnt Willie Mays say something like if he knew it was going to be that big of a deal he would have done it a few times? I thought I remembered that..

Oh, leave it to Barry Bonds to ruin my Brady Anderson trivia question. Mays too...
