I think they make stealing bases way to easy. I am midway through August and I've stolen 145 bases. They should either make the catchers arms better or when you have 15 speed not make it that you can reach third 3 steps before the catcher.


With fielding on powerful, and pitch speed on fast you wont have the problem of it being too easy. Its usually more about your settings then your skill when you find things way too easy. If your settings are all on powerful, and you have all the speed ratings to highest, and lock on to normal, you should see more realistic numbers.


Thanks, I should see what my catchers arm and pitchers arm speed are and see if they are to low. They probaly are and I'll boost them up to cut my steals down and make the game more realistic.

in AAA it is so easy to steal third, even.
they hesitate too long is the thing.
I've only been caught twice in MLB (w/o turning around and getting caught in a rundown)
once was trying to steal third

Well, I have to make my game harder because I can steal third with ease on some pitcher catcher combos.

For fun yes. Otherwise though I like to keep it hard make it challenge so I dont bat a 1000 with 2 home runs and 5 RBI's.

If Wakefeild is pitching, I can steal thirdwith a C runner and sometimes with a D (two different MyLife guys).

His fastest pitch is around 79mph, so almost anybody can steal second on him, and third too.

I love Wakefield not for Stealing though. My guy has only 2 Trajectory and 109 power so its rare for him to hit one out. I faced Wakefield this year and went 3 for 3 a homerun and 2 tripels!
