He got to second on a grounder by Foster which, although caught, didn't get anywhere in time to put out anyone. Wiestling thereupon stole third and came in on a bad throw made by Cooper who had the ball and was trying to catch Foster who had come within ten yards of third base - he had stolen second some time before...
