This question is tough for me, because I admire Hank Aaron greatly. He is a great man full of class and dignity. However, I am also a huge Barry Bonds fan (been on board since 1986, when he was pittsburgh's starting centerfielder). That being said, I have a hard time classifying Bonds as the greatest ever, steroids or not (it should be noted that Dusty Baker was an outstanding hitting coach before he became the Giants' manager in 1993. Couple that with Boonds arriving in San Francisco, and one can see the dramatic improvement in his hitting stats. Couple that with the talent that had always been there, and you see what you get). Bonds is by far the best player of his generation, no doubt. Aaron is the classiest ballplayer of all time, no doubt. When I think of the best player of all time, Willie Mays comes to mind. A genuine five-tool threat who played the game on another level, especially since there were tons of great players in his era (Mickey Mantle, Roberto Clemente, Frank Robinson, Ted Williams, Al Kaline, etc.). People will try to put babe Ruth on the pedastal, but...Ruth simply couldn't field his position the way Mays did, nor did he have the speed. However, Ruth was an outstanding pitcher (and would have made the Hall of Fame based on that alone). So to answer your question, it's neither Bonds or Aaron. It's Willie Mays.

Certainly Nolan Ryan did.
Four against Hank, three against Barry.
