...took Brock, then 35, 151 contests to reach 118. The new master of the basepaths is also the first man in history to achieve 100 steals in a season twice (the first time was in 1980), and he is currently 64 thefts ahead of his nearest competitor, Montreal's Tim Raines. With the exception of Cleveland, the extraordinary Henderson alone has more steals than any entire team in the American League. Marvels Tigers' pitching coach Roger Craig: "He can't steal first...

In the offseason, tennis fortifies Rose. Yaz, because of his chronically creaky back, is unable to run for exercise, so he pedals a bicycle in the winter and swings a leaded bat daily, relentlessly. Both say the physical part...
