Question
How many times did Vic steal home?
David,
I cannot tell you exactly. But it was less than 10 times. He was not known as a base stealer, but he stole home twice in one game on August 14, 1958 against Detroit when he was playing for Cleveland, something only 10 other guys have done in all of major league history.
