Breaking a cardinal rule
-
After only a couple of days of play I’ve observed an inordinate number of occurrences in which runners on second base with no outs or two outs were caught stealing third base. Most notable was the case with the 27’ Yankees. I can’t imagine a runner doing that with no outs while Babe Ruth sat on deck with Gehrig to follow. This flies in the face of traditional baseball wisdom which says you never make the first or third out at third base. I wouldn’t say it never happens but it’s unrealistic to see it on a daily basis.
