Rep.  Dawson....438 HR....314 SB

The one I would have guessed correctly was Barry's dad Bobby Bonds (332 HR, 461 SB).  Seasons with 30 HR and 30 SB are pretty common now.  It has been done 47 times since 1990, but in 1978 there had only been ten 30/30 seasons in the history of MLB and Bobby Bonds had 5 of them.  At that time Willie Mays was the only other player with more than one and he only had two.  Among all players with at least 400 SB Barry Bonds is #1 in HR, and his dad Bobby is #2.  Little known fact, but I'd argue the most impressive father/son combo in professional sports history..  Archie Manning was a very good QB, but he did not win anything or put up a lot of records.  

Reggie Smith had 305 HR and 304 SB

The other two are Carlos Beltran (435 HR, 312 SB) and Steve Finley (304 HR, 320 SB)
