If a guy reaches 2B 44 times and only scores 3 of those times you've got bigger problems than the 4 outs it cost you. And if 43 successful steals only bet you 3 runs then it's safe to say that those 4 outs didn't cost you any runs.
You're missing my point. I'm not saying that the runner doesn't score, I'm asking how often does he score only because he stole the base and where he wouldn't have scored had he not stolen the base?

So how many times does he score on a hit when at 2B or on a sac fly or grounder to the middle after stealing 3B?
A lot.
A lot.

Okay.
How many times does he not get out on a double play? I have to assume that there are more ground balls to the Infield instead of a double that would have scored him from first.

Well...seeing as one takes you out of a force out...I would imagine a lot more.
But to answer the entire question...I'm sure there are stats on this but I'd say around 50-75% more.
