Jacoby Ellsbury stole home for Yankees vs. Rays

by Eric Stephen

It happens so rarely these days, so a straight steal of home must be celebrated. New York Yankees outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury gave us that highlight in the fifth inning on Friday night against the Tampa Bay Rays.

[h/t MLB]

No piggybacking a steal of second base. No delayed steal. Just a good, old fashioned straight steal of home. Well done, Mr. Ellsbury.

It was the fifth steal of the season for Ellsbury, who averaged 37 steals per season the last three years.
