Tips & Warnings
If the pitcher attempts to pick off your runner before the steal attempt, repeatedly press RB or RT for Xbox, or R1 or R2 for PS3, to get him back to the bag.
Players with a 90 speed rating or higher have a much better chance at base-stealing. Before each game, you can also scout the throwing speed and accuracy of the opposing team's catcher.
