catches the Rays flatfooted.

1. Down one run? That's gutsy as hell.

[KamaAina]

2. I'll say!

I can only imagine what the back pages of the News and Post would have had to say if he'd been caught and they'd lost!

3. Yankees went on to win that game too

4. Good for him. He's already stealing millions from the Yankees. n/t

5. These are the types of videos

people need to see who think baseball is boring and don't appreciate the strategy in it. There's plenty of strategy, even when determining whether or not to steal home. If the pitcher has a slow enough wind-up, it might be time to pull the trigger.

10. +1,000,000. Baseball is a beautiful game.

6. Full count with two out - the runners are going for sure, but Damn, Skippy!

Betcha that pitcher will never be caught 'asleep at the wheel' again.

7. Not for the first time, either.

I wonder who the career leader is at stealing home?

[Brother Buzz]

9. Another left-handed pitcher

Coincidence?

Jackie Robinson should make the short list for stealing home; he did it nineteen times even though Yogi Berra went to his grave claiming it was only eighteen, "He was out".

8. Great play!

11. On The Same Day. . .

. . .a college player stole home too, and i've never seen someone THAT safe when stealing home. The pitcher and the catcher both were asleep at the switch. Can't find video, but the guy was safe by 5 feet.
