Ellsbury steals way to club record

The record stood for more than a quarter-century, but Jacoby Ellsbury decided before the 2009 season even started that it would be left in the dust by the end of the year.

And when the Red Sox’s speedy center fielder bolted for third and slid in safely in the bottom of the first inning on Tuesday night, the mission was officially accomplished.

It was Ellsbury’s 55th stolen base of the season, surpassing Tommy Harper’s club record set in 1973.

“It was definitely nice to do it here at home in front of the crowd,” said Ellsbury. “To set a goal at the beginning of the season and to accomplish it makes it that much more enjoyable.”

  1. I think that Jacoby is the best base stealer in the MLB. I went to one of his games but never saw him close up but in the 8th he came out and played center field. I live in Florida now but as they always say once a Red Sox fan ALWAYS A RED SOX FAN!!!!! I am not just doing this to get your autograhp but it would be cool to get one. PLEASE EMAIL ME BACK!!!! I am just an 11 year old kid. P.S. WIN THE WORLD SERIES AND BEAT THE Bankees I mean Yankees
