No, this player was not a prolific base stealer at all. In fact, he only stole 24 career bases.

Germany Schaefer stole 3 bases in one inning including the same base twice. He stole 2nd, then stole 1st, then stole 2nd again.

I think what Cliff Carroll did is pretty amazing. He went 0-for-20 in 1888, then retired to go into farming. Didn't play in 1889, then came back in 1890 and led the league in AB's, scored 134 runs and batted a career high .285

Another with 13 players who were with the Pittsburgh Pirates during the regular season, but never played a game. There's also one about 27 baseball families, as well as a day-by-day look at the worst team in Pittsburgh Pirates history.

Default Amazing Stats
In 1941, Joe DiMaggio struck out ONLY 13 times, and ended his career with an amazing low 369 k's in 13 seasons (28 K's per year)! Unquestionably, those numbers prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that Joe D. had the best bat control of ANY power hitter in baseball history.

Believe it or not, Teddy Ballgame was my first guess. Was more than a little surprised to see I was right, LOL.
