Stolen Bases
Boston Red Sox minor leaguer Braiden Ward stole his 17th base of spring training against the Minnesota Twins, setting a record for the most in a single spring over at least the past two decades. In homage to Rickey Henderson, Ward pulled the base from the ground after sliding into second base safely. The gesture, encouraged by teammates and manager Alex Cora, paid tribute to Henderson's iconic celebration when he broke the all-time stolen base record.

Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Trea Turner enters his 12th MLB season with 315 career stolen bases, placing him fourth among active players. At 32, he is poised to potentially claim the lead in 2026, depending on the status of leaders like Starling Marte. His speed, efficiency and on-base opportunities position him well for the achievement.
