Colorado had stolen 21 bases going into Friday, trailing only the Marlins and Padres for the National League lead. “Would-be Rockies base thieves had been thrown out only three times.”
Trevor Story leads the team in stolen bases, swiping eight bags in nine attempts. Colorado has also stolen three times as many bases on the road compared to home.
The Rockies stole three bases against the Diamondbacks on Wednesday, well above their 0.68 per game average. Seattle and Miami are currently the only teams to average over one stolen base per game.
