Without a doubt, the play from a couple of years ago where a guy attempted TWO steals of second base on the same trip around the base path has to go down as the strangest thing I've seen in baseball. He was successful in his first attempt but ended up back on first base through a bizarre series of events ... and then was caught stealing second later in the inning.
MLB had to implement a rule change to close a loophole on this one:

Wow that really was nuts. Ofc Segura never should have headed back to 1st base, what was he thinking?? Very entertaining....

Last night, of all things I was reading again about Ty Cobb stealing IN ONE INNING, 2nd,3rd and Home. Surprisingly, others have done it, too.

I love things like this ... what was the rule change?

This made me think of Richie Ashburn, the Phillies Hall of Fame center fielder and announcer. In one at bat, he hit a line drive foul into the stands that hit a woman in the face, injuring the woman. Medics came over and were carrying her out on a stretcher when Ashburn lined another ball into the stands, striking the woman again as she was being carried out.
