Best Answer

That would be Rickey Henderson with 130 stolen bases in 1982. The record for most stolen bases in a single MLB season is held by Hugh Nicol of the Cincinnati Red Stockings of the American Association who stole 138 bases in 1887.

As far as modern day Baseball is concerned, Rickey Henderson has the most stolen bases in a single season and Lou Brock of the 1974 St. Louis Cardinals has the second most with 118.
