B/R AM: EDLC's 100-Steal Quest

Samuel Evers

A subplot to this MLB season you should be following: Elly De La Cruz is stealing a historic amount of bases.

After swiping one yesterday, EDLC is up to 31 on the season in 50 games.

  • Those 31 are more than 15 teams
  • The next best players have 18
  • He already has five two-steal games, two three-steal games, and a four-steal game

His secrets: Baseball IQ, and being able to run 31.2 feet per second.

He's also on pace for just over 100 steals.

  • The last 100-steal season was Vince Coleman's 109 in 1987. No one's even hit 80 since 1990.

And if he wants the record, he needs 100 more to beat Rickey Henderson's 130.
