You steal a base by running for it before the pitcher even pitches, instead of waiting for the batter to hit the ball.
If the pitcher sees you, instead of pitching to the batter the pitcher must throw the ball to a team mate who must tag you out before you reach the base safely. You can choose to return to the base you started on, but to steal the base you must arrive safely on home.

Who covers second base when a runner attempts to steal?
It depends. The rule of thumb is for the second baseman to cover the base if a right-handed hitter is at the plate; shortstop for a left-handed hitter. The logic goes that hitters are more likely to 'pull' the pitch and having the infielder from the other side cover gives a team better defensive coverage.

To steal home in baseball is 100% completely legal. More than likely, you wouldn't steal home unless it's on a squeeze or it's 2 outs, bases loaded, and there is a full count on the batter. One of the most common, and obvious, situations to steal home, is whenever there is a passed ball... make sure the backstop is large enough to ensure you being safe. Know your speed! -Cole.Grossi
