Unveiled: The Rookie Who Shattered MLB Stealing Records and Left Legends in Dust

2. 75 – Benny Kauff, Indianapolis Hoosiers (1914)

Kauff started off his first season with a bang, pairing his 75 stolen bases with 211 hits, 95 RBIs, and a .370 batting average – the highest ever for a rookie. Had he not been banned from the league for an alleged auto theft, Kauff undoubtedly would’ve climbed the ranks and amassed more than 234 career steals.

3. 72 – Juan Samuel, Philadelphia Phillies (1984)

In the first 10 games of his rookie season, Samuel recorded eight steals. He was not only good at baserunning, but he could also hit, knocking out 15 home runs and leading the National League with 19 triples that year.
