Johnny Damon's double steal (caught on video, of course) turned the tide for the Yankees in Game 4 of the World Series. Johnny Damon's double steal with two outs in the 9th inning will definitely become a part of baseball lore: Johnny Damon led off first to steal second off of Brad Lidge's very next pitch. Having scored second base, Johnny Damon capitalized on a late return by Pedro Feliz to race toward third... which nobody was watching. So Johnny Damon turned a single into a triple by stealing two bases from one pitch.
We've never seen a World Series turn because a man stole two bases on the same pitch. But we've seen it now, all right.
