Did you see in the log that Rivera was never caught stealing?
Rivera WASN'T caught stealing. Rivera was the catcher. The catcher isn't caught stealing; he catches runners (Aguirre).

Rivera did not attempt a steal; Aguirre did. This should show up in Rivera's fielding stats, not in Aguirre's.

Fidel, I'm confused, too. As near as I can tell, noble has mentally transposed what catchers do with what runners do. To me, everything looks right.
