re: Rickey Henderson stole third 322 times in his career; to compare only 2 active MLB players

Especially his career stolen base record. Dude has 50% more career stolen bases than the 2nd place player on that list, Lou Brock.

To put it in perspective, Brock stole 938 bases in his career. If a player played 20 seasons, he would have to average 47 stolen bases a year to beat Brock’s career number. Last season, Jon Berti led the majors in stolen bases…with 41.

It would take Berti 23 years just to match Brock’s career number if he averaged his major league leading 41 bases a year and over 34 years to beat Rickey’s mark
