Car Thief

Lew Ford drove in the first (and only run so far) for the Minnesota Twins tonight. Lew, in my opinion, has been the offensive MVP of the Twins this year. He's gotten on base. He hits well and he draws walks. He has a little power, but working his way on is his forte.

But I also noticed what a good job Ford does stealing bases. He's swiped 18 of 19 this season to lead the AL in stolen base percentage. He was 2 for 2 last year, making him 20 of 21 for his career. That's the kind of base running even a sabermetrician can love. :-)
