College Softball Star Bri Ellis Reacts to Barry Bonds Post

The Razorbacks social media team likened Ellis' season to Barry Bonds' 2001 MVP season, showing that she had less at bats per home run, less plate appearances per walk, and a higher percentage of home runs per game.

Ellis' 26 home runs and 72 RBIs are both single-season program records, and she's on pace to set program records in batting average and on-base percentage. 

She finished the regular season ranked second nationally in home runs (0.51) and walks (1.42) per game, becoming the first player to do so since Georgia Tech's Jenn Yee in 2010. 

"It's crazy to even be in the same sentence as a legend like Barry Bonds," Ellis said. "I would never think to compare my stats to Barry Bonds, but they figured it out, and people love to see it, it's a great perspective."

Ellis made headlines a few weeks ago when she hit a walk-off grand slam in her fourth at-bat of the day against No. 12 Georgia, which was the first strike she saw all game after two walks and a hit by pitch.
