SEATTLE - We thought we have seen it all with Elly De La Cruz, but the Dominican-born surprised the whole world again with a historic game against the Los Angeles Dodgers on May 16, finishing the game with a career-high four stolen bases and going 4-for-4 on the plate.

The four stolen bases against the Dodgers took De La Cruz to a total of 30 in 44 games this season. According to MLB's Sarah Langs, De La Cruz is just the sixth player since 1901 with 30+ stolen bases in their team's first 44 games of a season.
