Maury Wills with Henderson on his back would've been heavy enough, but Maury's SB percentage was only .738, even without the added weight.

Morgan's SB percentage was .810 but he only weighed 160.

My guy's SB percentage was .789 and he weighed 200 as a rookie (according to Topps) and 220 during his career (Baseball Almanac.)

For perspective, Puckett had .638 with a playing weight of 178 as a rookie, 210 overall.

Earl Battey was no base stealer but he only weighed 205.
