A stolen base is a baseball statistic credited to a baserunner when he successfully advances to the next base while the pitcher is throwing the ball to home plate. Under Rule 7.01 of the Major League Baseball's (MLB) Official Rules, a runner acquires the right to an unoccupied base when he touches it before he is out.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Official Rules: 7.00 - The Runner )〕 Stolen bases were more common in baseball's dead-ball era, when teams relied more on stolen bases and hit and run plays than on home runs. , 161 players have stolen 300 or more bases in their careers, 46 of whom are members of the National Baseball Hall of Fame; only 15 of 37 players to have stolen 500 or more bases are in the Hall of Fame.〔 Rickey Henderson currently holds the MLB career stolen base record with 1,406.〔 Following Henderson is Lou Brock with 938 stolen bases,〔 and Billy Hamilton, who is one stolen base behind Brock with 937.〔 Ty Cobb (892), Tim Raines (808), Vince Coleman (752), Eddie Collins (744), Arlie Latham (739), Max Carey (738), and Honus Wagner (722) are the only other players to have stolen at least 700 bases.〔 Raines is the leader for retired players who are not members of the Hall of Fame.〔 Hugh Nicol is the leader for the most stolen bases in one season, with 138 stolen bases in 1887.〔 Before Henderson surpassed Brock in 1991, Brock had held the record with 938 stolen bases.〔 He had held this record from 1977 to 1991. Before Brock, Hamilton held the record for eighty one years with 914 stolen bases. Hamilton's record stood from 1897 to 1977.〔 Before that, Latham held the record from 1887 to 1896. Latham was also the first player to collect 300 career stolen bases.〔 With Kenny Lofton's retirement in 2007, 2008 was the first season since 1967 in which no active player had more than 500 career stolen bases.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Progressive Leaders & Records for Stolen Bases )〕 From 2008 until 2010, no active player had more than 500 stolen bases. Juan Pierre collected his 500th stolen base during the 2010 season. He was the leader in stolen bases for active players until his retirement at the end of the 2013 season.〔 Ichiro Suzuki currently holds the most stolen bases for active players (495). Rajai Davis became the latest player to reach the 300 stolen base plateau, doing so on August 30, 2014. ==Key== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of Major League Baseball career stolen bases leaders」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
