List of Major League Baseball stolen base Records - wikipedia List of Major League Baseball stolen base Records Stolen bases were not officially noted in a baseball game 's summary until 1886, and it was not until 1888 that it officially earned a place in the box score. The modern rule for stolen bases was adopted in 1898. While some sources do not include stolen base records before 1898 because they are difficult to compare to the era after 1898, as the sourcing on this list indicates, Major League Baseball continues to recognize them. Players denoted in italics are still actively contributing to the record noted. ( r ) denotes a player 's rookie season.

In the modern era, Ty Cobb set a single - season mark of 96 stolen bases in 1915 that lasted until it was broken by Maury Wills with 104 in 1962. A new modern mark was set by Lou Brock with 118 in 1974, and again by Rickey Henderson with 130 in 1982. Henderson and Vince Coleman are the only players to record three 100 - steal seasons in the modern era. Coleman is the only player to do it three seasons in a row, much less in the first three season of his career, as well as the only player to record 100 steals as a rookie.

In the modern era, Eddie Collins stole 6 bases in a game on two occasions, both in September 1912, a mark that stood alone for nearly eight decades before being tied by Otis Nixon ( 1991 ), Eric Young ( 1996 ), and Carl Crawford ( 2009 ).

In the modern era, Ty Cobb established a mark of three such seasons that stood ( though tied by Lou Brock and Omar Moreno ) until it was broken by Tim Raines in 1984. In 1986, Raines reached six seasons of 70 - plus steals, all consecutive ( a record ), but Rickey Henderson notched his seventh such season in 1989.

A year later, Max Carey also tied the record. The record was broken by Lou Brock in 1974. Brock eventually recorded a thirteenth 40 - steal season, but was in turn surpassed by Rickey Henderson in 1993. Henderson eventually stole 40 bases in sixteen separate seasons.

Minimum 20 stolen base attempts. The Major League Baseball ( MLB ) reference for this statistic lists Carlos Beltrán as having a 100 % stolen base percentage in 2004. However, examination of the statistics shows that Beltrán was 28 / 28 in stolen bases with the Houston Astros, but went 14 / 17 after being traded from the Kansas City Royals mid-season. While 28 / 28 is the National League leader for that season, the combined 42 / 45 ( 93.3 % ) does not make Beltrán eligible for this list. Similarly, Dave Roberts is listed by MLB as having a 97.1 % stolen base percentage in 2004. Roberts was 33 / 34 in stolen bases with the Los Angeles Dodgers before being traded mid-season to the Boston Red Sox where he was 5 / 7 in stolen bases. Roberts ' combined 38 / 41 ( 92.7 % ) does not make him eligible for this list. References ^ Jump up to : Thorn, John ( ed ) ; Palmer, Pete ( ed ) ; et al.
