BZ 1869: Stealing occupied base?
Unless I'm missing something, the section of game log I've attached appears to show a runner trying to steal an occupied base.
First batter in the bottom of the 11th (Glaviz) draws a walk. On the first pitch to the next batter (Cook), Glaviz goes to second on a throwing error by the pitcher on a pickoff attempt. The pitcher then intentionally walks Cook. On the first pitch to the next batter (Rodriguez), Cook tries to steal second, which supposedly is already occupied by Glaviz.
Glaviz later scored the winning run on an infield hit, which means either he scored from second (possible, but rare), or he somehow got to third and the game log doesn't show that. It's possible that he stole third on the play on which Cook was caught stealing, or that he actually went to third on the errant pickoff throw, but if either of those happened, the log doesn't mention it.
Whatever happened, there's something wrong.
