I swear by this. If you rapidly tap the "c" button on the nunchuck or the "c" + the up button on the d-pad (of the wii mote) simultaneously, your baserunners run faster. Every time I do this, it seems to work. For instance, when I steal with Jose Reyes and do this, he always beats out the catcher's throw with ease.

Try it out; maybe I'm just crazy. :lol:

I don't remember where, but in the manual or practice mode, it explains that you can get baserunners to run faster by repeadately pressing B + Z alternately.

Wow, I never knew that. With the leads and the B+Z, it's much easiar to steal. I always got caught before unless I was either using my success player Road Runner (creative I know :roll:. I was tired and couldn't think of anything better) who is maxed in all skills and abilities related to running or if the catcher's arm is bad. Now I can steal 80+% of the time with a B+ runner.
On a side note, this is my 100th post.

Yeah, just continuously tap all the L and R buttons to run faster.
