Stealing Bases

I've been having a major issue with base stealing in a certain situation. A runner on 1st & 3rd. Every time I try to steal with the runner on 1st the runner at 3rd also attempts to steal. What am I doing wrong?

Re: Stealing Bases

Hold the left stick to the right (which would resemble towards first base), then press the L2 (or hold it if you're using your own timing). Then only the runner on first will steal.

What if I'm using the other option for base running?

Re: Stealing Bases

If you're using auto base running where they make all the decisions, I don't think it's possible to steal second only in a first and third situation. Ive used auto baserunning for a few years and Ive never figured out how to do it anyways. The only way I can think of is to turn off auto base running for that situation and then turn it back on after you've attempted the steal. Not ideal but no other way to do it really.

I'm talking about the option where you use the d pad instead of the thumb stick.

I do this and my player on 3rd still runs. Haven't messed with the OTB settings. I've just stopped trying to steal in this situation

Make sure you are directly right, like 90 degrees. I've had that problem before, and I swear I fixed it by making sure I am not off a bit.
If you go to the 4 o'clock positing instead, I don't think it registers just one base.

Re: Stealing Bases

You gotta tap L2 otherwise both runners go.
