Terrance Gore Snags A Steal
6 years agoKansas City Royals pinch runner Terrance Gore finally got back on the horse by acting as part of a double steal in the eighth inning of Wednesday's ballgame against the White Sox. Gore was the front end of a double steal with fellow lightning-quick teammate Billy Hamilton that allowed the two to then score and tie the game on Nicky Lopez's RBI single. Gore is usually an extraordinary pinch runner, but this season has been a struggle for the man. Coming into the season, Gore had only been caught four times in 31 attempts at swiping a bag, but he's only 6-for-11 on the basepaths so far this year. Since Gore's entire value is wrapped up in his speed, this could spell disaster for his career.
