Any steals of home to report....ever?

May 29, 2015 at 01:25PM View BBCode

We all have it in our settings. Steals of home. But in my 25,000 games (and I've watched just about every one of them) I've never even seen an attempt.

If you have a game saved with a steal of home or an attempt, please post it. Otherwise, if you remember one, share the memory...

it never happens. i asked once, Tyson said ABE would never allow it. I had my steal-home settings jacked up to Ultra Aggressive for entire seasons.

Doesn't happen much in MLB anymore but it should be possible, growing up I remember watching Rod Carew do it a bunch of times, checked the record book and he had 17 steals of home. Bryce Harper's 1st major league stolen base was a steal of home, weird right ?

Anyone remember when Dee Gordon stole 2nd, 3rd and home a few years back, I remember thinking "That's amazing" and then found out Honus Wagner and Ty Cobb both did it four times in their career.

Nevertheless, it still happens a few times a year. Why include steals of home in our managerial settings if it isn't even a thing?

Can you imagine the outrage if someone lost their SD LCS or WS because of a steal of home? :lol:

Or, if someone is down a run or tied in the 9th in the WS, has the bases loaded an no one out, and their guy gets caught stealing home, followed by a couple groundballs to 2B?
