(While not an official stat) Babe Ruth seems to have stolen home 10 times. Hard to picture that.

Does advancing on a wild pitch count as stealing? Thats the only way I can imagine him stealing home so much.

They don't give you a stolen base on a wild pitch. (Fat) guys must have been faster back then.
