Who is the only player since 1930 to attempt at least 10 steals in a season without ever being successful?

He was 0 for 10 his rookie year and 0 for 3 his second season, making him at least 0 for 13 to start his career. Retrosheet doesn't have box scores before 1957 so I'm not sure if the streak stopped at 13 or continued.
