New First for me

Man on second one out. Runner is a base stealing threat. Batter is a left handed pull hitter. Defense plays HARD shift right, leaving third base unoccupied. Pitcher has a good hold rating. Decide to steal third...

1st Pitch:Ball one, doesn't steal
2nd Pitch:Ball two, doesn't steal
3rd Pitch:Ball three, doesn't steal(getting annoyed at my runner now)
4th Pitch:Strike one, doesn't steal(REALLY annoyed now)
5th Pitch:Ball four, Runner attempts to steal third(finally), catcher jumps up to throw to third as third baseman runs to cover.....THROWN AWAY in to the outfield, runner scores.
