One of greatest players I've ever had the privilege of watching. Got an autograph from him at spring training 2006 when he was coaching for the Mets.
A little trivia I recall about him. Nolan Ryan pitched his seventh no-hitter for the Rangers on the same day Rickey broke Brock's record.

#2 - I know the guy you are talking about because of his unique career. His name was Darrell Woodard and he made it to the big leagues for a brief time. Never had a hit. Reached base once by walk but had 10 runs, 3 steals and caught stealing 4 times. A's mainly used him as a pinch runner.
He wasn't bad at the plate in the minors. He knew how to take a walk and reached base often but he was playing when batting average was still king of stats. Had he come along a decade later when Tony Larussa was managing the A's he might have made a decent career for himself as TLR placed a higher value on on-base percentage.
