Maury Wills breaks Ty Cobb record for steals in a season

Wills steals three bases against the St. Louis Cardinals, giving him a record-setting 97 for the season. HeĀ ties Ty Cobbā€™s long-standing major league single-season record of 96 steals by swiping second base after singling in the 3rd, and breaks it with a repeat performance in the 7th.
