Mariners star Julio Rodriguez recorded his 15th stolen base of the 2023 MLB season, and in doing so, joined Fernando Tatis Jr. in an exclusive club in league history.
Sunday’s clash against the White Sox marked the 200th game of Rodriguez’s career. Rodriguez’s 15th stolen base of the season was the 40th of his career, making him the second-fastest player since 1900 to record 40 home runs and 40 steals.
It took Rodriguez 200 games to achieve the milestone, while Tatis Jr. needed just 185. No player has reached the threshold faster throughout the history of the league, dating back more than 120 years, per ESPN Stats and Info.
