Question
Who was the last MLB player to steal home twice in one game?

Answer
Hi Shannon,

Thanks for writing.

Today (August 14) is the 49th anniversary of the last time one player stole home twice in one game.  Vic Power on 8/14/1958 was the last to accomplish this amazing task.  His second theft of the game ended the game.  Here's a link to the box score:

What's even more amazing is that for the entire 1958 season he only stole 3 bases, but 2 were of home in the same game.

Best Wishes,

Geoff
