Cincinnati Reds star shortstop Elly De La Cruz is having an impressive second year in the bigs and it became even more special on Wednesday when he stole his 50th and 51st bases of the season during a 9-4 win over the Atlanta Braves.
De La Cruz didn't just do it on the bases against the Braves, he also cranked one of the most ridiculous home runs of the MLB season when he pulled a ball that was low and way 402-feet over the wall in right center.
But let's get back to those stolen bases. He leads the league by 20 and has more stolen bases than six MLB teams:
