So, as a guy who watches a lot of cricket, I'm going to say that none of these players stole home. They slide in, they touch the base, they get up, and they haven't stolen the base because the base is still there. Seriously, thanks for posting. Made me realise how much of an art there is to this.

I was at the Red Sox/Yankees where Elisburry stole home. The crowd was lit. Too bad I was in the bathroom when it happened

I stole home on the pitch once. I realized about 10 feet from the plate that the batter had no clue I was coming and I if they swung it would probably kill me lol

you can understand stealing home against a left hander, but a right hander? that's practically looking at you? talk about a slap in the face..... :D

it takes some serious balls to steal home

wheres Benny the jet Rodriguez?

"you sure hes 19" Dude looked 27 along with everyone else in that dugout.

All of those are fun in context, but the truly impressive thing is the straight steal of home, of which I counted 4 in this video (sadly including one by the Red Sox against my Yankees, which I watched live and still remember). The one straight steal against the right hander was truly remarkable though. That has to be up there with perfect games and unassisted triple plays as amongst the rarest feats in baseball.

want to see someone steal home in world series game 7....down by 1....2 outs...bottom of the 9th

No love for Rod Carew? He stole home SEVEN times in 1969 !!

Where is Benny "The Jet" Rodriguez?

Nice compilation. The rarest and most fun to watch play in baseball.

Run downs, pass balls, wild pitches and broken plays shouldn't really count as stolen bases. I like the true steal when you just steal the base.

Homeless ppl should take notes It's a joke ;-;

I'm a simple guy. I don't follow baseball really that much, but I am always watching videos like this on my lunch break. Any kind of sport.

Love it! Especially with 2 outs. 3:50 was the best with a left-handed batter. Pitchers got to watch those runners!

In my mind, a lot of them are not stealing home. Maybe *technically* by the letter of the rule they are, but not in my mind when there's 15 throws around the diamond. That's just sloppy fundamentals. One of the best was missing, Jason Werth taking it on the throw back to the pitcher.

You really had to play that ear rape at the end

Ppl forget how good Omar Vizquel was and the quality of the teams he played for. He should be in the HOF for sure.

Pick-Offs and passed balls don't count as steals.

1:34 is the first real steal of home.

I hope to see more of these MLB videos from you Bryce...I really liked "Punks".

The straight steals are the best, especially the one against the righty. That's an alert baserunner and a pitcher that's truly asleep at the switch.

Among the most exciting plays in the game. I've seen one no-hitter (one pitch short of a perfect game, the last batter walked). It felt like you were witnessing baseball history.

Benny The Jet Rodriguez has the greatest steal ever

Only 4 were "pure" steals.

Thank you for that awesome video. Totally Epic!

One of the most exciting plays in sports. I didn't play baseball very long, but played it all during my youth. I was a very quick kid who was also pretty tiny. So my strike zone was small so I'd get on base a lot via walks, bunts, or neatly placed bloopers into the shallow part of the outfield. I remember my coach one time told me to, if I got walked, to run as fast as I could straight to first and keep going to second. I forget if it worked or not but let's just say that it did.

2:06 Thats when the Phillies knew they wanted Harper for 13 years😂 how times change🤣

The slowest guy on my team stole home... i was in a pickle for about a minute...

The crowd is pumped after a steal home

thanks for making this awesome video hope you make some more like this

Thanks for this kinda video bryce

the royals are just a well put together team it's not like they have some amazing players it's just they have the right team

I don't always steal, but when I do, I steal home.

that last one is ohso classic... good stuff

"The sound cut out so I replaced blessed silence with garbage"

In my opinion, it's the best play in baseball.

😂😂😂😂the music music for the lost audio clip 🤘

I guess we've all seen Jackie Robinson's straight steal on Whitey Ford in the 1955 World Series. It's still an all-time highlight, and Yogi was probably right. But what a daring move by Robinson, who timed the play exquisitely.

Harper stole home on a team he’d be on in the future kinda crazy

Missing Ellsbury's newest clip now :)

That last "classic" was a balk too! Take your base, thank you pitcher.

I wonder if the umpires get excited seeing something that awesome like Andrus stealing home

The 2 Royals ones were 👌

0:23 Major League final game?

Villar, Harper, Visquel and Andrus were true steals. The last one is just sick.

My friend jumped over the catcher at our softball game and got us a point it was awesome!

I'm a Yankees fan but I gotta say that Ellsbury steal was dirt nasty.

Last one was the best.

Saving the best for last. I remember watching him play in high school. Fast as they come!!

1:33 I love that one, the straight up steal of home.

No Billy Hamilton?

how bout the vid of jakie Robinson stealing home

Thanks for the compilation. But most of these were double steals, or one very wild pitch. A straight steal of home is one of the rarest things we see, which is part of the reason it's the most exciting play, in my opinion.

Nice play and it was funny when the man said is you sure that guy is 16.

Where's Benny "The Jet" Rodriguez?

Thanks. I play in a 48+ fast pitch league and I still have speed. This year, I am hoping to try to do a straight steal of home. I mean, why not at my age? I'll let you know what happens.

That last one was awesome Thanks

Love it I stole home to win this summer best rush I have ever felt!

I thought it was people actually stealing houses

Cant believe u made 4 grand off this video miss u lol

Jason Werth should be on here. His strategy was brilliant

Nice compilation video Bryce!

pass balls and wild pitches are not stealing home

Most of these arent really stealing home lol

Loved this video keep it up!

what was so classic about the play with no audio ? looked just like the other steal of home when the pitcher was asleep ....

OK..so you supposedly had to add the last one because it was a classic. That doesn't mean you had to add annoying music to it. There is nothing wrong with some silence in a video. Always MUCH better than really loud annoying "I will always be a virgin" music.

Last season in baseball I stole home 16 times in 12 games.

The best one was Elvis with the straight steal against a RIGHT hander.

Fun idea..... a right-handed batter (who knows the steal is on), purposely misses a bunt, but doesn't move and instead kind of opens his legs for the runner to slide through. The catcher would have a hell of a time trying to tag him out around the batter........ LOL

3:13 cmon I could do that

Thumbs down for the ef'd up music at the end. I would rather hear NOTHING!

I recommend you do a Stealing signs compilation to compliment your excellent SHC.

Awesome vid dude.... As a left handed pitcher years ago I had a guy do that to me stealing home..... Not a good feeling.

The clip of Villar, Andrus, and Vizquel is how u REALLY steal home.

3:47 Is the most ridiculous!! xD! He was spleepy

Bryce your videos are great keep it up. Btw whats your favorite team

MLB is really going to miss the K.C. Royals team of the past few years in 2018. Their style of play epitomized the "small ball" approach that every sports radio caller and host lovingly eulogizes 24/7, 7 months of every year, across this Nation. Gonna miss that intensity. (I say this not as a Royals fan, just another distant admirer).

From MLB.com: "However, if he was attempting to steal as a wild pitch/passed ball was thrown, he is generally given credit for it." I like this. If the runner starts before the he knows it's a wild pitch or passed ball, give him credit for the steal. Although it does say, "generally," so that probably means there's some allowance for the scorekeeper to say he wouldn't have been anywhere close to succeeding, and so score it a WP or PB.

Nice collection 👌👌⚾️⚾️🏆🏆

0:44 lol

Jesus the last one was how you steal home plate! He just out run the pitch!

When I was a kid playing ball, our best defense against a first and third double steal was for the catcher to throw the ball low and hard to the second baseman, but have the pitcher cut the ball off and throw it back to the catcher, nailing the runner at home. It worked all the time. I only saw it tried once at the major league level and it worked then, also. I don't know why they either fake the throw, or throw down to second most of the time, neither of which work, almost ever. Plus, if you used the pitcher-cut off play once or twice, and it gets around the league, the pitcher can FAKE the cut-off, which makes the guy on third hold his ground, and you still have a chance for the runner at second.

Should be called "Jacoby Ellsbury Compilation" :^)

Ty Cobb holds the major league career record of 54 steals of home. He also holds the A.L record of stealing 2nd, 3rd and home 4 times. Babe Ruth stole home 10 times. The N.L. career record is 33 by the Pirates Max Carey. When Pete Reiser of the Dodgers wasn't running face first into walls he was pretty adept at stealing home. He holds the single season record with 7 steals of home in 1946.

I like the straight steals the best though any steal of home is usually a heads up play. I particularly like the Villar steal. I'd like to see some videos of Rod Carew stealing home.

"Just the way they practiced it before the game." I love when sportscasters can be that smart, that fast.

1 min 56 sec..."this is a wookiee against the left handed pitcher" lol

man, bryce keep up the good work

GREAT I LUV IT MAKE MORE PLS

Name of song and band at the end please

I've been looking for the other 2 by Omar Vizquel, especially one as an Indian where there was no throw home. Any help anyone?

1:56 OMG! Did that really happen? I never even dreamed you could do that! WTF was the pitcher thinking?

What was the song at the end? Great compilation by the way

that Jonathan collar one 👌

The 'Straight Steal of Home' is indeed a lost art. Maybe the most famous was Jackie Robinson with Brooklyn Dodgers stealing home during the 1955(?) World Series in YankeeStadium-I recall the replays showing Yogi Berra going into a tirade because he was called safe-he looked out to me. But the greatest was Rod Carew-he had 7 in 1969.

Let's see all STRAIGHT steals of home. Far more exciting than most of these.

Rod Carew, before he blew out his knee, was the greatest at stealing home, doing it 7 times in 1969, still the record.
