Figgins Fast?

Figgins is in as a pinch runner, but as far as I can tell, he doesn't know how to run the bases. He didn't score when Rivas had Eckstein's liner go off his glove into center, despite the fact that Figgins was half-way to third when it happened. And just now he didn't score on a wild pitch, even though Eckstein was able to go to 2nd. And now he gets thrown out at the plate on a grounder to 2nd. I'm not sure he was out on the tag, but if he goes straight in with his foot, I think he scores.
