Mess around with the sliders. You can increase steal speed and decrease delay.

ok here tap the right stick up 2 times and wait for a pitch that u know if going to be offspeed if u know it is going to be a fastball dont steal. Also the comp. throws a lot of pitchouts so u have to watch out there too

No...not cheating man.
Stealing isn't easy. Look at the best base stealers. Podsednik was still caught 12-15 times last year. It happens. With a Jimmy Rollins, you can't go on the first pitch most times as it will be a fastball. With Rollins on base, pitchers know he is fast and will keep him honest. If you're patient enough, try and get a 2-1, 2-2 count and take off. The pitch will be something off speed. Hope it helps.

First of all, I believe you can take three leadoffs, but I'm not positive. Most of my stealing is off of gut instinct. If a pitcher has had the ball for a while, and hasn't thrown, I pretty much asume he isn't planning to, and 90% of the time, I'm right. If you click steal before the pitcher enters his windup, you'll break for the bag as soon as he starts, and you'll probably swipe a bag (I've stolen bases with guys whose speed is only 56 this way without changing sliders). The downside is, if he does throw to first, and you've already clicked steal, it's like an automatic pickoff.

Well I click leadoff three times...I guess I just waste energy with the last one.
