Trivia Time (x 3):

[profholt82]

I thought of two more lead off men who stole lots of bases.
Kenny Lofton
Jose Reyes

I'll submit these two fellas for 700 ABs and most recent to have 70 SBs in a season. Come on, one of them has to check one of those boxes.

Reyes - 78 steals in 2007

Lofton's 70-SB seasons were prior ('93 & '96) to the three I have in mind.


SO, NOW WE HAVE THREE CORRECT ANSWERS:

Ellsbury & Reyes had two of the last three 70-SB seasons.

Ichiro Suzuki had 704 At-Bats in 2004.

WE STILL DON'T HAVE THE 1963 NL Stolen-Base Runner-Up.

I know Kirby Puckett was close a few times. I just don't remember if he ever had 700 AB's.
