Successful Triple Steals

[Brian McKenna]

I was reading about a triple steal by the Giants on 5/2/1912. Just wonder how many have been pulled off successfully in ML history.

Out of the 53 times that Ty Cobb stole home, six were part of triple steals.

Of course. These are Billy Martin's teams.He had to have the gazelles too, I don't think he ever did it with his Yanks

He had to have the gazelles too ...

Sure, but isn't it a beautiful thing that he took advantage of that ?
