base stealing or lack there of....

I don't know if this is happening to anybody else but it is quite frustrating. I play out all my games and it seems like every time I click to steal 2nd, the baserunner will never get a good jump.

I particularly noticed this in my last game where the baserunner was a 3 in speed and 4 in stealing, the pitcher had a 1 for hold and the catcher was a 3 for arm. Not once but twice the pitcher throws two curveballs and the baserunner never got a good jump... I just find it baffeling that this player could not get a good jump to even attempt to steal 2nd.

The only way I am able to steal bases is to do a hit and run and hope that they swing and miss in order to steal bases. I think its ridiculous that this is the way I have to go about stealing.
