I'm sure this has been mentioned before, but I couldn't find anything in a search and I am new to v3.

I see the computer do pitchouts sometimes, but I don't see it as an option when I'm in the field. Is this correct? or am I missing something here?

Also, does holding the player on at first decrease your chances of stealing 2nd base? From what I can tell, this nor does swinging and missing on a hit and run decrease your chances of stealing. Although if I don't hold a player on at 2nd base seems like he can steal 3rd at will.

I guess what I am trying to say is 'stealing' just doesn't feel right to me. Not to say that the leaders aren't the fastest in the league, Furcal, Bagwell, Lofton, etc.. but when I see an E in speed and an E in stealing steal a base on me, with my catcher at a B for arm - it makes me scratch my head.

Thanks,

Todd
