**Stole again! 22-year-old monster, already 19 stolen bases this season.**

‘Keep running towards 40-90!’

Eli de la Cruz (22, Dominican Republic), the 'monster' of the Cincinnati Reds of the American professional baseball Major League (MLB), added another stolen base. In 32 games, Cincinnati has already stolen base 19 times. He hit 8 home runs and 19 stolen bases this season. He continued his ridiculous ‘crazy pace’ of ‘more than 40 home runs and 90 stolen bases’ in one season.

De la Cruz started as the second hitter and shortstop in the 2024 MLB regular season home game against the Baltimore Orioles held at Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA on the 4th (Korean time). He singled out the two hits the team recorded. Cincinnati suffered from an empty ball and lost 0-3, but struggled.

In his first at-bat in the top of the first inning, he gave up a single. He then succeeded in stealing his 19th base of the season. In his second at-bat in the top of the fourth inning, he hit a fly ball to right field. He completed a multi-hit game with a double in his third at-bat in the 7th inning. He struck out in his final at-bat in the ninth inning. On this day, he recorded 2 hits in 4 at-bats, raising his batting average to 0.288. He recorded an on-base percentage of 0.392, a slugging percentage of 0.586, and an OPS of 0.978. 

He recorded a stolen base in 4 games. After successfully stealing a base in a game against the Texas Rangers on April 29, he produced his 19th stolen base that day. He went on to hit 40-90 (40+ home runs, 90+ stolen bases) this season with 8 home runs and 19 stolen bases. He advanced to overtake Ronald Acuña Jr. of the Atlanta Braves, who was named National League MVP last season, '40 -70' (41 home runs, 73 stolen bases). Since not even 20% of the season has been played yet, maintaining the current pace appears to be the key to achieving the record.

Cincinnati was defeated 0-3 despite De La Cruz's hard work. With their last 3 consecutive losses, they recorded 16 wins and 16 losses. Finished in 3rd place in the National League Central Division. Baltimore achieved its 21st win (11 losses) and took the lead in the American League's Eastern Division, a place of fear. They whistled for consecutive wins and maintained the gap with the second-place New York Yankees (21 wins, 13 losses) at one game.
