- I tried to make most of these straight steals of home. it was hard when 80% of the search results were of double steals, it literally took me 45 minutes to find clips.

Stealing home has got to be the biggest middle finger in baseball.
This video doesn't show the 1000 times it didn't work.
Scy 60% of the time it works every time.
Donte H, no, 80% of the time it works half of the time.
@@Tuning_Spork it's a line from anchorman lol
No, it is probably easier than stealing second. There is no need to beat the throw of the catcher. You have to time the break for the home plate and hope the catcher isn't perfect.
Stealing home is one of the most aggressive and exciting plays in baseball. You either have to catch the defense napping, hope for a bad throw, or just flat burn down the baseline in order for it to work. That's why it's not tried more often. Plus you better be sure Bc if it doesn't work you have lost a possible run sitting 90 ft away.
Upton came in like a bullet.
Thankyou Captain Obvious!
Film study of pitcher s deliveries
@@darthmaul3525 I believe at one point he was the fastest player in MLB.Obviously that was before Billy Hamilton came up.
And Ty Cobb pulled it off successfully 54 times! No one else in baseball history is within 20 of him!
I like how Green walks to the dugout very nonchalant after stealing home. very ho hum
Never looked back, he knew he made it.
Pretty badass.
one of if not the best stolen homes ever.
His was my favorite reaction.
He wants to make everyone green with envy.
@@Mark-lq9ir That's a good one. I like it.
For some reason, these never got boring after seeing 10 minutes of them... Thanks for finding some I haven't ever seen before
Pickle
I agree, these are some of the rarest. Jacoby stealing Home on Andy Petit is my Favorite though!
Vlad McBuxton haha yeah and the yogi one near the end was totally worth the wait
@@redbug3485 I was there and I called it beforehand. Me and Stu (who got us free box-seats). @cappy714
same
2:35 might be my favorite baseball clip of all time lol
Ikr
no fan fair ... good sportsmanship ...
Like a boss.
It’s just another day at the office for him
Bro that dude came in so hot lol
Stealing home plate is so rare that no one ever expects it which gives the runner a big advantage, but the time they realize what's happening he's scored.
IMO, they ought to be ready for it every pitch.
2:19
steals home to win the game? what a legend!
A walk off stolen base
Almost as good as Benny "The Jet" Rodriguez
And a backup catcher, to boot!
2:35
Why does green just quickly stands up and walks like he's in a video game?
Boss!
Its easy
*play it cool play it cool play it cool play it cool*
Alexandra 😂
Ran so fast he almost set the ground on fire
Gotta admit heading the crowd start to erupt before you even see the runner in frame is awesome
I know that's awesome!
*hearing 😎✌
When I was 12 or so, I stole home to win a little league game that was in extra innings. I thought I was the man for a while..😂😂
dont they have a rule in little league where you cant be off the base until the ball passes home plate
Yes. In little league you would have to steal on the catcher’s return throw before the pitcher gets back on the rubber.
Rules must be different in different areas. The rec league I played for as a kid, the smaller kids weren't allowed to steal, but as soon as my age group was allowed to steal we were allowed to lead off. Never saw anybody try to steal home though that mustve been insane lol
As time went on, you probably realized that for all the parents at a little league game in overtime, you _were_ the man!
@asdasf8817 I'm late as hell, but that was the rule. But the pitcher would catch the ball from the catcher and look down as he walked back to the mound. So each pitch, I would jump off the based further and further, until I just took off running home. . .As you can see, this moment stuck with me..😂😂
6:43 "WhaAtT waS MaZiKk DoinGgg?!"
Lol
voice crack
Jar Jar Binks
Jerry Seinfeld.
In fairness, they just didn't see Wil Myers because he was wearing camouflage.
Kevin Wilson 😂😂😂😂😂
Kevin Wilson
He could've been wearing polka dots -- they were fucking clueless.
Was that Dusty's Reds and Homer Bailey? If so, I'm not surprised. You or I could have stolen home against them, Kevin.
Outwitting that Reds' team was child's play. Give Dusty a 'can't-miss' roster and he would take you to the mountain top, but never into the Promised Land.
@@redbug3485 WTF are you talking about????? Where do you get the idea that a runner can't steal home once the pitcher has the ball? That is totally wrong. The ball is live and runners may advance at any time. You are making stuff up.
@@redbug3485 BS, runners may attempt to advance anytime the ball is live. Post a reference to back up your statement.
@@alanhess9306----- It costs too much to to talk about rules that are set with an umpires decision on when a ball is live or dead. Every play a ball is dead and alive and dead again.
I love how everyone and the announcers see them before we do. I see a half second of urgency and insanity then someone slides into frame. The catcher at 2:00 is funny to me.
2:34 is the cleanest thing I've ever saw
2:35 looks like a video game, when the player walks off the field the same way every time
Had to laugh at Green just walking off after he scores; "As you were, gentlemen...."
5:32 Shout out guy in the back waving the flag, He a real one MVP
Is he trying to throw off the pitcher?
Moose N That’s what I’m guessing, I never seen someone try to distract a pitcher 😂
2:36 should be a deal with it meme where the sunglasses come down
I love how multiple times the catchers are just sitting there with the ball in their hand seeming completely confused about where the hell the guy came from 😂😂 that’s got to be incredibly disorienting
Catcher: "Wait, what are you doing? Why are you charging at me? Where did you even come from?"
One of the ballsiest moves in all of sports, especially when it's a naked steal with a batter in the box and the pitcher with the ball.
2:36 if that slide isn’t as smooth as it gets then I don’t know what is
8:33 wow! Only $0.75 for a beer
Good eye...but minimum wage was probably $ 2.85 an hr back then...
@@larrydeleau4664 still, you could get drunk on one hour of work. Now days min wage is $10 and so is beer
Meltman..very true
Ha
Meltman1000 lol $10 minimum wage :(
This is one of those things I'm still waiting to see live while watching a game.
8:37 Best clip in this video. The commentator just makes it so exciting.
2:35 The way Green gets up and strolls away
At 2:25 a walkoff steal of home?? The vintage clips are gold.
A walkoff steal of home by a backup catcher, no less.
2:37. I hate baseball, but that was the best slide I've ever seen. Calmly walking away like an action hero...
The shear amount of balls it takes to steal home… unbelievable
Thank you for including Glenn Brummer at 2:20. A classic Cardinals memory.
Yeah, and 3 things are particularly notable about this one. First, it was a walkoff steal of home, since it was in the bottom of the 12th inning at Busch Stadium. Second, Brummer was the Cards backup catcher (Darrell Porter was their first string catcher). Catchers are probably the least likely to steal, since most are not fast runners. This play was truly the "Element of Surprise". Third, this occurred on August 12, 1982, in the thick of a pennant race between the Cards and the Phillies, so every win was crucial at the time. Some people think this was the play that catalyzed the Cards winning the NL East that year.
I remember listening to this game on the radio and hearing the great Mike Shannon call it. So exciting- and Glenn Brummer, of all people. Talk about unexpected!!
This seriously is one of the most badass things in all of sports
Hey everyone, Phil Collins is in the house!
@@mlbvintagecardcollector505 I know what you did. I saw it with my own two eyes.
Why is this play always my favorite? It is so exciting. I absolutely positively love it!
"The Jet with a suicide lead and... he's stealing home and they dont see him. I dont believe it." Its fictional but that scene captures a great moment and the feeling of stealing home plate.
“Remember kid, there’s heroes and there’s legends. Heroes get remembered, but legends never die.. Follow your heart kid and you’ll never go wrong..”
Any compilation of stealing home has to include Kenny Lofton scoring from 2nd on a passed ball in game 6 of the 1995 ALCS against Randy Johnson and the Mariners.
Ty Cobb stole home 54 times. It didn't hurt that he had the highest batting average ever: .366
His competition sucked
.....AND 4,191 hits.
And that he was one of the dirtiest men who played the game!
You guys skipped the one with Benny "The Jet" Rodriguez.
Even though he’s lost a step or two
East coast bias since The Jet was a Dodger.
The Jets stole home!!!! The Jets stole home!!!!
@@galnhus56 Oh please
My favorite part of watching these is seeing the catcher panic.
I love this game. I will watch as many of the Rays 162 I can. But when it comes to UA-cam, you absolutely cannot beat a stealing home video.
Cody S. Me too. I live 5 min from the Trop but I prefer to watch it on TV.
@@NB-ky5ol - Aw, man. I would go watch a couple at least. You can't beat the atmosphere of a live baseball game. Unless it is like the last game we just played against the White Sox. That would have been misery.
Look at how Yogi chews out the ump. You used to be able to scream your head off and they wouldn't toss you. Now you give 'em a funny look and you're gone
It was the World Series. They’ve always been more lenient about ejections
They make it look like its the easiest base to steal
6:53 Omar Vizguel has to be the oldest person in history to steal home. He was 38-41 when he was with the Giants.
Yep, that was in his last year with the Giants so 41
I always like how the crowd roars just as the steal from home begins. If you're a pitcher and have never seen it happen to you before, it's got to be a bizarre experience.
That's why it's called the most exciting play in baseball!
Yup
My absolute favorite thing in baseball, stealing home! 1 of the greatest feats in all of sports! Just as amazing as a game winning hail mary!
Awesome. An ad for Jodie Foster in "Stealing Home" is in my suggested now.
Rod Carew stole home seven times in 1969. Seems like a fairly large omission.
In 1972, however, he had a game-winning steal of home. I believe that was also the year he won the batting title with no home runs. He was Tony Gwynn before Gwynn debuted, only that Gwynn was harder to strike out than anyone whose career began after 1945.
Right?!!
@Daryl Leckt It would be if it was the record. Ty Cobb stole home 8 times in 1915, 54 times in his career, and a 55th time in the 1909 World Series. Still, this doesn't take anything away from Carew, who is the only player in the last 40 years to steal home at least 10 times (he had 17).
@@Ize19 Cobb played against a bunch of screw ball pitchers with long windups. The game was not managed with a fine tooth analytic comb the way it's done today. I'm not very impressed with records from the dead ball era. I think they cannot be referenced by todays standards. The Carew season was amazing. Also, I am really surprised Rickey Henderson didn't do this more often. I guess having Canseco, Mcgwire, Winfield and Mattingly following up in the lineup, he didn't have too would be my guess.
@@mlbvintagecardcollector505 I did say it doesn't take anything from Carew. Yes, the game was played differently, but there was certainly still a ton of analyzing going on with regards to the game, especially when Cobb was in his baserunning prime. They were still playing professional baseball at the highest level that existed at the time, it was still the NL&AL, the records are still in the book. Baseball has an incredible history, it's a tremendous mistake to dismiss a huge chunk of it because it took place an arbitrary number of years ago.
And brother, Yogi is hopping
Wait till tamarrah!
Yes, but the announcer had it backwards. Actually, the Dodgers won. Very strange!
Played baseball for 12 years as a kid. If I had it to do over again, I would have tried this at least once.
Steven Turner I would patiently wait on third base for semi-regular passed ball. Only then, take off!!!
stealing a base after a walk, worked every single time in little leauge lol
LOL I did try. I wasn't real fast so it wasn't expected. The catcher lobbed a moon shot back the pitcher and I went. The ump had his back turned and missed the play at home - called me out. The catcher was a buddy. Said I was easily safe.
The angles from the pitcher is always the funniest. Outta nowhere a dude just slides and gets a point
One of the most exciting plays in baseball though rarely seen.
triple plays are pretty bad ass. and we cant forget bases loaded for the grand slam
Watched a lot of baseball games over the years and I've even seen a pitcher get four strikeouts in one inning (think about that one) but I've never seen anyone steal home except when watching replays like this.
How?
@@Magnus_Inno uncaught third strike rule
@@joustwave6541 ohhhh
Dodgers Vs Rays Game 5
Brought Me Here lol
Yogi Berra's reaction is an all time classic.
That’s when players cared for more than just the money. 👍🏻
So was Jackie safe?
@@colleenross8752 He was called safe which is why Yogi (the catcher) went crazy. He thought he tagged him out.
No pilfering. No stealing. GRAND LARCENY!!!

Savage Brick Sports can u do a video Called nfl game breaks
Savage Brick Sports Can you do NBA players who got injured after getting their ankles broken.
sure did
Savage Brick Sports hey man can u do the bengals history plz
How about a vid of runners getting thrown out trying to steal home?
cool, thanx for including Glenn Brummer and the Cardinals, he was a catcher for cryin out loud and the steal won the game.
6:15 dude........this wind up was beaten out of kids when I played baseball. For this exact reason.
Oh those Astro's uniforms. Love them.
Wow. The uniforms they wore in Yogi Berras day were heavy, hot and felt like a burlap sack.
I know because I wore them back in the '60s and the '70s. I am older than dirt (68 1/2).
@@JohnCapizolaSr714 John, you're a spry young man with great memories and experience
Elvis Andrus has some of the cleanest steals of home in the modern era. You notice that there is no walk, no distraction of the pitcher, no other base runner involved, and no wild pitch.
When Andrus steals home, it's usually 100% him vs. the pitcher's delivery time to the plate.
It's how RIcky Henderson used to steal home -- pure IQ and speed.
Awesome compilation. I love and enjoy it. Thx
It’s a funny coincidence or they already knew Hamilton was going to steal home😂 4:01
You hardly ever see anybody steal home in a baseball game. There’s a good reason for that. It’s almost impossible. A thrown ball moves faster than even the fastest runner. To steal home, you have to get a great jump, a tough pitch for the catcher to handle, and a certain amount of luck.
2:35 they way he just glitches upwards and walks away like he’s in a video game was awesome
I stole home a couple times in high school. Felt amazing!
You may be badass, but you will never be as badass as Green stealing home
2:36 legit looks like a glitch on MLB The Show
Videos like this is how I get my baseball fix during the pandemic.
Interesting stat
Ricky Henderson: 4 career steals of home
Babe Ruth: 10
2:34 Nani!
It’s funny how Jacoby Ellusbury has stolen home on both Red Sox and the Yankees
The shame of it all is the $135m the Yanks paid for that 1 steal as it seems like the only highlight of his Yankees career!
And that is coming from a Yankees' fan.
That is the ONLY recorded video of Jacoby Ellsbury in a Yankee uniform....135 MILLION for ONE steal of home! He stole home AND the money!!!
I was there for the one in NY, when he played for the Yankees. Actually, I could have been in Boston, I love the city, not the team.
That was great, real good work on it. Keep that up and I might just have to subscribe.
2:12 that was a nice roll by the catcher lol
8:10 he even snuck that past the ump, he didn’t realize there was a play at the plate until he was already safe.
0:58
Such a classic
Was at that game when Werth stole home....what a great 5 run the Phillies had.
Brummer stealing home in 82 for the Cards as the 3rd string catcher is iconic stuff!
Chico Ruiz stole home on Sept. 21, 1964 for the only run in 1-0 game which started Phillies' 10-game losing streak.
It's not related to the video, BUT...Jayson Werth's steal of home was the third stolen base for him in that inning. He was on third after stealing second AND third.
Adam Moreira theres a video idea, stealing every base in one go
Kevin Pillar did so as well at the beginning of this season...against Dellin Betances. He stole second and third without a throw, and then stole home. The lead he got against Betances...a RIGHTY, pitching from the stretch, was ridiculous.
I'll never forget back in '93 when I witnessed with my own two eyes Benny "The Jet" Rodriguez steal home in an MLB game for the Dodgers.
What could possibly be better than Jackie stealing home against Yogi! The best! and I'm a Yankee fan!
At 2:35 he slid and then got up at the same time 😂😂😅
Pop up slide
Please replay and slow mo some of these. That would make it about 500% better.
3:35 Awwwwh he wanted a high five too! 😂
How embarrassing for the other team 😭😂
FANTASTIC!!!! THEY DON'T DO THIS ENOUGH!!!! Not even SUICIDE SQUEEZES. Many teams actually LOSE GAMES by stranding runners because they are NOT willing to 'go the extra mile' to get the runner home!!!!
Aaand if they do 'go the extra mile' as you put it, and lose the gamble, they've just given up a run 90 feet away.
The Elvis Andrus clip is beautiful. You can see that the pitcher has a step in his delivery where he's looking down into his mitt, and Andrus has the read on it. As soon as the pitcher looks down, he's gone. by the time the pitcher looks up it's too late.
I was behind home plate at the sox, yankees game where ellsbury stole home. It was unbelievable....I’ve been going to games my whole life and never saw anything like it.
These videos don’t do the experience justice. Within the span of about 2 seconds the crowd slides steadily from a quiet rumble up to a deafening roar as people realize what’s going on...and it’s like a bomb goes off after the “safe” call.
Honestly, it might be one of the more exciting things that can happen in all of sports.
Great description, bravo!
Was not Aware the Flash played baseball lol
It is kinda weird now seeing Jacoby Ellsberry on Red Sox playing against the Yankees...
TY YT imagine how it was for the red sox fans when he imediatly signed with the yankees after winning a world series with them and then playing against him
bakugo it's not that weird now. I'm actually quite happy that the Yankees are paying more than $20m a year for a backup outfielder
counterfit5 Lol true
Damn so kickass to steal home much respect to these guys
None of these dudes would've stood a chance stealing on Prime Johnny Bench. Facts!!! Go Red's!!!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
If you think about it, left handed pitchers have their back facing the third base; so it's a little easy to steal from third base to home when you're in the pitchers blind spot
KayKwasa It's the fatal flaw of the southpaw...
Your Fabulous Happy Mann except for Jon Lester. His fatal flaw is throwing to first.
It's called a TEAM for a reason! What do you think the job of the third baseman is or the catcher in this case. Add to it, the base runner at third didn't get there by magic.
8:36 #42 jackie robinson 'nuff said
He was beyond out
I have always loved it when a player pulls off stealing home.
2:36 walking away like nothing happened 😄
Where the Benny Rodriguez stealing home against the giants?
This kid got in a wind up so I stole home to win the game my heart was racing tho 😆
This is awesome, I saw another compilation that had almost no straight steals
That pitcher at 1.20 got caught chewing his cud and forgot about the game then panicked. Great running to steal home base
DID YOU KNOW...JACKIE ROBINSON STOLE HOME 19 TIMES...THAT WON'T EVER BE BROKEN
If I️ ever go into the major league I️ will beat it because in little league I️ have like 39 steals at home
Ty Cobb stole home 54 times.
But that "steal" of home in the World Series was a gift. He was OUT from here to there!
Max Carey has the National League record of 33 steals of home (NY Times, April 16, 1989)
Fun fact he also struck out to end WS gm 7 in 1956 to end his career! So sad
