Torii is Sneaking up on People...

Well, more to the point, the Twins Torii Hunter has been unexpectedly sneaking around the backs of pitchers on the basepaths this year, and stealing bases seemingly at will.

He's an unbelievable 10 steals in 10 tries!

And the jumps he's getting are so big, I don't know why catchers even risk a throw.

In only 3 weeks, he's nearly half way to his season best of 23.

I think stealing bases is one of the most exciting things about baseball, and don't think as that as his reputation grows, he starts really playing on pitchers minds when he gets on.

They end up worrying more about him after he's on, than the batter they're facing.

So keep it T.H.

Now, if we could just teach Rivas to bunt for a single every game...
